My Country Garden Design Solutions

A huge thank you to Faith for planning, choosing plants and planting out two borders in my garden. The whole experience was very enjoyable from our initial meeting to the planting day. I can't wait to see these borders in their full glory, based on succession planting so Spring, Summer and Autumn should bring much enjoyment and colour. Thank you Faith.

Faith's imaginative design has turned a once unused corner of my garden into not only a functional kitchen garden but also an attractive and very eye catching place to sit in and survey my first ever effort at growing vegetables. The design included some very beautiful screening, a fabulous greenhouse, easy on the eye raised beds and a rose festooned gazebo. I love spending time in the kitchen garden; time spent out there is restorative and rewarding. The corten steel screens are beautiful, they create a separation of the area without blocking the view entirely. I had no need to make any adjustments to the design. Faith was able to interpret my vague ideas and came up with with a plan that I loved. She was able to quickly understand my tastes and incorporate them into the design. The other aspect which was perfect for me was Faith was able to source everything and provide pretty much a turn key service. The photos I have added show the variety of plants and a not quite finished overall shoot of the project! Whatever your garden design requirement Faith has a depth of knowledge and a wonderful garden herself!

We had Faith designing planting plans for three of our borders and doing the actual planting too. Our sorry looking bare borders had been a source of stress for us for way too long as they needed doing but I just didn’t feel confident with what plants to choose and how to best fill them. Faith did a brill job with the design, ordering the plants, improving the soil and planting hundreds(?) of beautiful plants into the borders with her lovely team. For us, the planting itself would have taken weeks probably, Faith and the team did it very efficiently in two days. We are so relieved it’s now done – well worth the money spent! – and happy with how they look now. And they are only getting better as the plants establish over winter and start growing and blooming next spring and summer. Can’t wait to see that! Thank you Faith!

What a transformation! We really did not know where to begin but Faith was able to create an amazing design for our garden. She managed the whole process from start to finish with a high level of attention to detail. Her knowledge of plants is incredible and she remained in contact with us afterwards giving helpful advice on maintenance etc We have engaged with My Country Garden Design Solutions again on two further projects since then and received the same high quality of service. We would highly recommend them.

I met Faith during an organised visit to her own garden and heard by chance that she was a garden designer. The project in my small garden was to replace a leylandii hedge with more sympathetic screening. When she visited Faith made suggestions regarding landscaping the whole back garden. Her cost for redesigning all the flower beds and borders was £800. She also gave a very realistic estimate of the cost of the whole project. During the design process I was able to give plenty of input as to which plants I liked or disliked. In the end I was pleased that I didn't interfere too much as her choice of plants was wonderful providing drifts of blending colour from Spring until now and further into the year. She has included some beautiful varieties of whose existance I was unaware. In the evening light the colours glow. The garden has been transformed and is giving us enormous pleasure. Faith has a great talent for colour management. She is also a cheerful hard worker. She did the sourcing obtaining and together with a young assistant, the planting. I would certainly recommend her to other people.

My Country Garden recently transformed part of my garden, and I cannot recommend them highly enough. Hugely knowledgeable, enthusiastic and experienced, but also very good at listening to what we would like, I felt very confident of good results, and I really feel we have them already! The garden was planted about six weeks ago, and it just keeps on getting better and better as it grows, it has really inspired me in the garden, and I'm excited about watching the plants grow and develop, and get involved, which I've always been slightly scared to do before. Faith and her team were absolutely fantastic, and I know if I still have any questions they will be able to help me going forward too. We have such an amazing variety of beautiful plants now, and they have been planted in such a thoughtful way I know we will have interest and beauty throughout the seasons, and the garden will really be such a wonderful focal point.

Faith gave advice at the beginning of the year with a new border design to increase colour during the summer months. As a result I have enjoyed a summer (and Autumn) of beautiful colour which has blossomed with colour. I look forward to building on it in the year to come. Thank you

Faith has a natural gift for wonderful, innovative garden design coupled with an encyclopaedic knowledge of plants. She know exactly what will thrive and importantly how things will look with changing seasons. Faith's gardens are therapeutic as well as joyous. Whether for residential or commercial projects It is always a complete pleasure working with Faith as she brings a special dynamic and synergy to the process as well as being exceptionally professional. Highly recommended.

My Country Garden came to my home and discussed in detail my requirements, preferences and ultimately my desired end goal with regard to my garden project. Faith assessed the space and soil, promptly providing me with a wide choice of concepts and plant suggestions to suit my needs. Once I had made and confirmed the necessary decisions, the plants arrived very swiftly. I was impressed by the quality of the plants and the extensive knowledge and thought that had gone into the selection and sourcing of them. I was offered advice and support throughout the entire process. In summary, I am extremely happy with the service I received from My Country Garden and found them to be professional, knowledgable and friendly at all times. I wouldn't hesitate to use them on future projects.

My Country Garden redesigned my garden from scratch. It involved taking our trees, digging new borders, saving some plants that were good and then sourcing the rest. The remit was simple, but not straightforward as our soil is clay and chalk, the sunshine is only in certain parts, and we wanted colour for as long as possible throughout the year! 18 months in and the garden was still blooming running up to Christmas, the bulbs are all popping up everywhere and the shrubs are developing wonderfully. Flowers were so prolific we were cutting some for indoors for months - it was heaven! Faith was knowledgable, sympathetic, and hard working throughout and her after care and follow-up has been right-on. I cannot recommend them enough!

I asked Faith to give us her advice about the layout of our newly dug boarders and provide us with a planting and maintenance plan for them. Faith listened carefully to the brief and quickly understood what we wanted to achieve. Her plant knowledge is second to none and she was able to give very useful and relevant advice. She was able to source the plants we decided upon quickly and cost effectively. We have had the first year of our 'new' garden and are extremely pleased with the results. The plants have worked extremely well together and provided us with colour and interest for most of the year. Thank you Faith for the fantastic job you have done. Highly recommended.

Faith has provided garden and planting design services over the past 12 months. Faith has an excellent eye for detail and can really see how a garden should flow in terms of bed design and the planting within it all year round. She has been flexible to accommodate my own ideas and really takes the time to explain what will work or not and why. Faith provides a full service from design to sourcing of plants and then planting and over the last 12 months, Faith has helped me to redesign and plant 2 very large flower beds ( after an unsuccessful first attempt by another designer) to ensure the beds have a well thought out flow and all year round colour. Faith has also designed and planted a fruit tree orchard and a wild flower meadow within my garden. The wild flower meadow sits beneath the orchard and has been under planted with a variety of bulbs to ensure a long flowering period. The outcome is that my garden has been in fantastic flower from early Spring to early Winter. I have received a number of compliments on how beautiful my garden now is and I would highly recommend Faith's services.
