So how does it work?

I have never heard of Garden Editing. What is it?

That's because I made the term up! You can see more about my philosophy here. Think of editing as bridging the gap between high-end garden design and maintenance gardening. 

What happens during an Editing session?

The session will take up to an hour. In advance, I'll send across a quick questionnaire to gather the basics.  I'll then turn up, look at your space, take some pictures and get to work! If you are comfortable, I'd like to see your garden from inside your home too and will bring house shoes to facilitate this. This is because we spend a lot of the year inside our homes looking out at our garden, and there’s all sorts of tips and tricks to “borrow” your indoor vistas for the outside, and vice versa.

We will do a tour round the garden, focusing on your priorities. I'll give advice and answer questions as we go along. And the end, I’ll wrap up with advice for specific areas.

I've you've booked the Full Edit, don't worry, you don't have to remember all I've said!

What happens after an Edit session?

If you've booked a Full Edit, within a week, you’ll have a personalised, written report emailed to you. This contains a summary of all the advice recorded in writing, with hyperlinks to websites, youtube demos, accompanied with photos to give you some visual guides. It's designed to work on mobiles, on laptops and on computers. If there's a particular format you need for accessibility reasons, just ask as I'm only too happy to help.

Do you recommend particular products or nurseries?

I have trade accounts with local excellent nurseries, so if there are particular plants I think would work in your space I can source them directly for you. But the links to shops and websites are just by way of example; I don't receive special offers or payment for products I link to. If I really recommend something specific, it's because I personally rate it and have used it in the past.

Do I have to tidy up or do anything in advance?
