Questions

Can’t find your answer? Just write – I’m happy to help.

(1).Where do I get the plants?

The plan includes a shopping list you can order from any nursery. On request I recommend specific nurseries too.

(2).Can the garden be low-maintenance?

Yes – it’s one of the most common requests. Plant choice follows the time you want to spend.

(3).Do you design with native plants?

Gladly, and I often suggest it: they’re more resilient and better for garden wildlife.
