Ongoing horticultural care for gardens that deserve more than basic maintenance
A thoughtfully designed garden needs the right care as it grows.
Hedge & Thistle provides ongoing horticultural care and garden development for clients who want their gardens looked after with an understanding of plants, soil, seasonal growth and the original intent of the landscape.
This is more than simply keeping a garden tidy.
With more than 30 years of horticultural experience, Christopher looks at how the garden is performing as a whole, identifying what needs attention now and what may need to change as plants establish and mature.
Helping your garden develop over time
Gardens continually evolve. Plants grow into one another, conditions shift, irrigation requirements change and areas that worked several years ago may need to be reconsidered.
Ongoing care allows these changes to be managed thoughtfully.
Depending on the garden, this can include plant care, pruning, soil improvement, planting and replacement recommendations, irrigation assessment and management, seasonal advice and the gradual refinement of garden beds and planted areas.
For clients whose gardens have been designed or planted by Hedge & Thistle, ongoing care also provides continuity. The person who understands the thinking behind the garden can continue to guide its development.
Commercial horticultural care
Hedge & Thistle also provides ongoing horticultural services for commercial properties where the quality and presentation of planted areas are important.
Commercial services can include planting design, plant selection, garden establishment and scheduled horticultural maintenance, with care tailored to the needs of the property and its landscape.
Whether residential or commercial, the focus remains the same, healthy plants, healthy soil and gardens that continue to perform beautifully over the long term.
