planting schemes

The key to a great planting scheme is plant selection and positioning.   This may sound obvious but I have worked on some gardens over the years where the client has previously paid a great deal of money for a surprisingly disappointing result!   At County Landscapes we consider your planting needs carefully beforehand. We use different foliage and flower colour, texture and form, and position them to give the maximum effect possible.   Over the past few years there has been a trend towards Mediterranean and semi-tropical plants, with new and exciting varieties on the market each month.  The majority of English gardens are far from English these days, but we are still able to provide either traditional or contemporary planting depending on your needs.   The crucial thing I have learned is to listen carefully to the customer's requirements.   The Mediterranean look is well suited to our coastal location, as the climate is similar to such plant's native habitat.   So whether love hot and exotic, or prefer a more traditional English look, we listen. and then help create.
