A garden must be a workable, practical space – not necessarily a conceptual fancy, or a stage set: more a space that fulfils a ranges of specific needs.
Whatever the space, Chris will redesign and replant your garden to transform it into the perfect outdoor experience, employing textures, sounds, tastes and smells to stimulate all the senses.
By combining high quality materials, bespoke features and expert horticultural knowledge, we use our creative flair to design gardens that suit your individual taste and style.
From large scale housing developments to smaller commercial premises, we undertake all aspects of design from planning through to technical detailing and creative design.
We create sustainable, diverse planting schemes with a wow factor - using only high quality plants with expert ground preparation that result in long lasting schemes.

I’m always getting things filthy from gardening tools to bikes, so I thought I’d put the @stihlgb RCA20 cordless pressure washer through its paces.
I only do Ads for products I genuinely like, and I wanted an excuse to look like a rad dad. The best thing about it is that you don’t need mains power or water, so you can use it with the bladder or a water butt. You can also plug it into a tap if you’re cleaning things at home.
It has a lance extension and a detergent bottle included in the kit. It also has multiple spray settings and an eco mode if you need to save power, but the AS batteries charge very quickly.
Definitely a great fit for my lifestyle I’m often away from water connections and seem to get everything covered in mud 👌

The key is to prune more often than you think and you will create a dense plant with few holes. There is something to be said for leaving the shaggy new growth for a while though, as it looks great!
These Yew topiary balls had only been planted this year and were long overdue some shaping. They looked fab in the summer against the grasses and perennials, but I love that they’re going to provide structure even through the winter.

Pink themed garden with all weather reading shelter ✅
@garden_ninja_lee and I had a blast on this build! We went all out with pink outfits to match the theme 🤘!
This really was the smallest garden rescue build we’ve done and I packed a lot into the design! When a covered seating/reading nook is on the brief I really had to rack my brains to think about working it into the design without taking light from their patio doors.
The planting is very traditional but the green, pink and whites work very well together 🙌. Some lovely paving details as well to complement this, mixing aged bricks with more contemporary planks.
Cracking job by the team as always @benjaminrichardpope @landy3614 @leighapugh @jimbobs2020 @burdfieldlandscaping

Another @gardenrescueofficial garden in the bag and @flo_the_gardener and I had fun making this one! This garden needed to be used for cooking and entertaining all year round.. the couple even cook their Christmas dinner on the BBQ, so it had to deliver!
I designed the garden with good structural elements in both the hard landscaping and the planting, so it will look good all year round. A couple of my favourite plants featuring in this one.. the Dicksonia Antarctica (Tree fern) and the Cercis canadensis ‘Forest Pansy’ - both influenced from when I was first learning to garden with John Bailey.
The team did such a good job on the paving and timber work, I think the setts really tie the whole garden together. Cheers @benjaminrichardpope @jimbobs2020 @leighapugh @burdfieldlandscaping & Jonno!

Inspiration photo dump from our holiday to Andalusia. We travelled across the bottom of the Sierra Nevada mountains and then up to Granada.
We went over for a friends wedding (which was the best) and then spent a few days after having a little holiday. I couldn’t help but take snaps of plants here there and everywhere…
It’s so refreshing to go abroad and see plants in a totally different environment to what we have here in the Uk. The contrasting textures in managed gardens were so beautiful and then the natural plant mixes found on hillsides were equally as striking!
Always good to have a breather, take your head out of work for a moment and remember why you get so excited about plants 😂🪴.
P.s spare a thought for Zoe and Jude who were having to put up with me stopping the car every 5 minutes on random mountain sides, looking at random messy shrubs and grasses!
