Challenging gardens
We do love a challenge! Whether a steep sloping garden, a long narrow garden, a roof terrace or a small city courtyard, we come into our own.
This is where our combination of design and build is essential since most challenges require a practical ‘engineering-eye’ as well as a creative ‘design-eye’ and the two must work closely together. In fact we often find that a difficult situation can open the door to exciting new design possibilities.
I was really pleased with not only the end result, but also the way in which the team worked patiently and imaginatively to design something I could never have had the creativity to suggest myself! The onsite team was hard working and polite. I was particularly pleased to experience the same level of commitment to the after care as to the original design and execution.

I just wanted to say thank you for my lovely garden! I’ve been watching it progress over the last couple of weeks, and taking photos each day to track the transformation. Coming home to find the plants in situ was a wonderful experience – I love the way it looks, and it’s such a joyful space. I really like the planting and your choice of herbs, grasses, shrubs, plants. I especially like the use of the paddle stones around the little standard plant in the middle. I can’t wait to show the garden off to friends and family! Russell and his team did a great job in all weather, and please pass on my thanks. All I need now is some warm sunny weather to make the most of the garden and watch it grow.

It was easy for us to choose Green Dot Gardens. Others couldn’t offer the complete solution we were after. Jamie Higham simply delivered on his promise from design to completion. His approach was friendly, he was sympathetic to our requirements and budget without pressure to commit. Having been around for the whole process, I witnessed the sheer hard work the guys put in. Even in the worst of the rain, they just got on with it. I can’t praise them, or the quality of their work, highly enough.
