Is this the right starting point for you?
-
You want professional guidance before committing to plants or construction
-
You’re looking for clarity, not multiple design concepts
-
You value experienced judgement over generic advice
-
You understand that not every enquiry proceeds directly to design
If you’re still at an early or exploratory stage, a different starting point may be recommended after review.

What happens next
-
You submit a request with basic garden information
-
I review your details personally
-
I confirm the most appropriate next step and outline how we’d proceed
-
You decide how (or whether) to move forward
Submitting a request does not commit either party to proceeding.
