5 Good Reasons to Use a Garden Designer

Reasons Why a Gardener Should Use a Designer

  1. Hard landscaping isn’t like plants, you can’t transplant it if you don’t like the effect
  2. A fresh eye can analyze the strengths and weaknesses of the existing garden
  3. A good designer will listen to what you want and guide you through what is – and isn’t – possible for your budget
  4. If you don’t know what you want, a designer will help you draw up a wish list (e.g. a place to sit in the sun, a wildlife pond, a herb garden) and stop you going off at a tangent
  5. A good designer will make sure the elements of your new garden create a cohesive whole rather than patchwork of disparate styles
