Our process combines site analysis, spatial planning, and 3D visualisation to develop functional outdoor spaces. We specialise in transforming challenging sites into cohesive, aesthetically pleasing environments that maximise usability and ecological value.

Our approach ensures year-round usability through strategic planting and microclimate creation, enhancing both property value and daily living experiences.

Becca redesigned our rear garden and it was so successful we are now doing the front garden! This is our first summer with the new design and it is beautiful. Becca is very knowledgeable and creative, listens carefully to clients wishes and needs and is a delight to work with . We are enjoying our gorgeous outdoor space immensely. Becca will design , work with the landscapers , order your plants and position and plant them . She also fed our plants' details into a super website which keeps us posted on care and maintenance ( which in our case is fairly minimal). Our highest recommendation.

I would highly recommend Blossoming Gardens. Fantastic, professional and friendly service. Becca took time to understand what we wanted and how we would use the gardens before starting designs. I was great to see these part way through so we could comment and contribute to the final design. We are delighted with the final result and look forward to spending many hours in our lovely new garden.

Becca made it very easy to turn our tired and sightly sad garden into something much more lively and bright. I'd recommend working with her. She has a nice focus on what is important & has great suggestions on what to do. I'm really happy with what she has done for us.
