103 23
If you are having problems choosing plants for your garden, why not hire a garden designer.
They don't only design gardens in a purely planned and created layout way, they also know about plants; which will work best and which to avoid.
They can help you choose the ones that will set off your garden to perfection, saving you time and money as well.
One of the most useful skills that a garden designer should have is the ability to listen to what the client has to say.
They will listen attentively as you explain all your problems, all your wishes and all your hopes.
Then they will discuss with you what is possible and what is not, what is likely to work best and what is best avoided.
Much of what can be done will depend on the site analysis.
This is a comprehensive assessment of your garden that the designer will undertake.
It will start with an accurate measurement of every element so that an accurate plan can be reproduced.
Then the soil will be analysed to see what it can sustain and what it can't.
Existing drainage conditions are also important, as well as how the light may affect certain areas.
There may be little areas of micro-climates.
These will also be noted.
Some things in the garden may work better if they are changed.
The soil may be unsuitable for certain plants and may need enriching.
The drainage may be unable to cope adequately with heavy rains and this could possibly present problems at certain times of the year.
Large bushes or trees may be blocking light to parts of the garden and this may need to be addressed.
Putting right all of these things and more is what you can expect to get when you hire a garden designer.
When it comes to knowing all about plants, this is where the designer should excel.
They can save you a lot of time, frustration and money by knowing exactly what your garden will cope with best.
All too often people have bought a cute looking plant only to discover that it stayed small when they expected it to grow big, or it grew huge and almost took over the garden when they thought it would stay small.
It's not only the knowledge of which plants to buy to work best for your garden that a designer can help you with.
They can also advise on the best location in your garden where the plant will flourish and be unrestricted.
This is not always obvious to the keen amateur gardener as there are so many factors to take into account, and every garden is different.
When you hire a garden designer you will also be buying into their expert knowledge of buying plants.
They will know where to get the best deals in terms of quality, as well as in terms of price.
Their skills will save you time and money and give you precious peace of mind too.
