Landscaping
Planting for homes and businesses across the North West
Lawns, trees, hedges, beds and borders, planted by the people who grew the plants. One border or a whole garden, a back garden or the grounds of a business. No job is too small.

We do the planting side of landscaping. That is the living part of a garden or grounds, from a new lawn to a full replant. We don't build walls, lay patios or do other building work, so if your project needs those, we come in once the hard landscaping is done. Aftercare and maintenance are available as a separate paid service.
Planting schemes
The right plants for the space, the soil and the light, put in and mulched. From a tidy-up of what is there to a complete scheme for a garden with nothing in it yet.
Lawns and turf
New lawns laid as turf, with the ground cleared, levelled and prepared first so the grass takes and stays level.
Trees
Specimen and standard trees for a garden, a driveway or a boundary, planted, staked and tied so they establish straight. Bare-root in winter, potted the rest of the year.
Hedges
New hedges along a fence line or around a whole plot, from bare-root or potted plants depending on the season.
Beds and borders
New borders cut, edged and planted, or old ones cleared out and replanted. Shrubs, perennials and seasonal colour chosen to look right together and through the year.
Moving into a new-build?
Most new-build gardens are turf on compacted ground with nothing else. Read our guide to choosing plants for a new-build garden, or send us the plot and we will plan it with you.
Some of our planting
Gardens and grounds we have planted.
Planted with our own stock
What we plant is our own stock, much of it grown here from young plants on the yard, in the glasshouse and the polytunnels, and some comes in from overseas suppliers.
It means the people who quote your job are the same people who grew the plants. They know what is ready, what does well in this part of the country and what will still look right in five years, and they pick it off the tables themselves.
How a job works
Four steps, and the first two cost nothing. The time from the first message to the first spade in the ground depends on the season and the size of the project.
What it costs
Every visit and every quote is free, with no obligation. The price of the job depends on three things. The labour, the size of the project, and the plants and materials that go in. You get the quote before anything starts, and no job is too small to ask about.
Who you will deal with
A member of the team comes out to visit and quote, and our own team does the planting, with stock from our own nursery. We cover all of the North West from our nursery in Rixton.
