Planting can be one of the most important aspects of any garden, giving interest with scent, colour, texture, shape, size and even sound. Many landscape design companies focus on hard landscaping and don’t always have the knowledge to finish well with the planting.

With a firm background in horticulture, at Garden Creations we pride ourselves at being able to design a garden using plants to enhance the design with careful consideration given to colour schemes, flowering times, eventual size, suitability of growing conditions and the required style.

If you are happy with your existing hard landscaping but would like a new planting scheme, Garden Creations can design, prepare and plant existing beds or create completely new ones. We can supply and plant anything from herbaceous borders to semi mature trees, from lush jungles to formal knot gardens and everything in between.

A lush green lawn can be one of the most pleasing aspects in a garden for a lot of people. Apart from being practical, a lawn adds shape, space and focus to a garden. We believe the key to a good lawn is in the preparation. We use quality local suppliers of turf who are able to supply tougher varieties for difficult areas which are perhaps shady, dry or used by dogs.

Not every garden needs a real lawn

If the area is very difficult for grass or you would like a low maintenance option, we can supply and install an artificial lawn. Artificial grass has come a long way in recent years becoming very realistic, soft to touch and much better value than it was – it can be difficult to tell it apart from a real lawn!

Artificial lawns are particularly suitable for areas under trees, gardens with energetic dogs or very sporty kids but they can be used to great effect in any garden just to ensure a good looking lawn all year round with minimum maintenance required.
