Passionate About Plants?

A One Stop Solution For Your Planting Needs

Are you feeling overwhelmed with planting up your garden this season? Are you looking for season round interest, colour, fragrance, texture, and impact from your garden?

Plants can have a massive effect on adding depth and curiosity to your garden to complement hard landscaping features. Many of our customers struggle to find time to maintain their garden, let alone find time to research appropriate plants for their garden, design a combination of plants, source the plants from multiple suppliers, inspect the health of delivered plants and then prepare the borders and plant up! The ideal conditions of Spring and Summer pass by and it becomes a lost opportunity of never getting round to seeing the amazing difference plants can make to your outdoor living area.

One Stop Service

We offer a one stop service to design, supply, prepare and plant your borders with a quick turnaround and no stress or hassle with dealing with multiple tradesmen.

N

Experienced, Knowledgeable Designer

We have an in-house plantsman and garden designer that will work on your planting border design and discuss your requirements. This will range from wanting a low maintenance plant border, requiring plants of a certain established size, or preferred colours.

N

Sourcing Plants

Many customers have paid for border and landscape designs elsewhere – but then struggle to source the plants. Plants will be for year-round interest and specific species (smaller/ larger/ different coloured flowers) – plants out of season or a certain species will not be readily available from local nurseries or online (let alone all plants available from one single supplier). All of our plants are sourced from a single supplier so all plants on the design can be sourced or easily substituted with similar varieties.

N

Aftercare Service

We give customers the information they need to maintain the borders once we have finished. We check up on our planting after completion to check to progress and health of plants and offer a maintenance service to keep on top of pruning and strategic weeding between young plants.

Expert Planning for Inspiring, Beautiful Borders

Once the consultation and site survey are completed – the next step is the research, design and arrangement of plants that will enrich your garden with colours, scents, textures, and sensations. Expert planning allows us to: make sure you have a range of plants that flower throughout the year in beautiful combinations and pick the best-suited plants for your space, soil, and light conditions.

Let’s Help You See into The Future!

Our digital design service generates diagrams and pictures of how your garden will look once planted up and established. Customers can choose from a numbered diagram of what plants will grow where in the border, or a more premium option of 3D Rendered views of your garden once established.

Hassle Free, Fully Managed Service

Once the plants have been ordered and then delivered through our supplier, we will check the health of the plant and quantities. We will organise a date then to deliver and install to your property. We can then supply you with aftercare documentation and can also offer to maintain the borders until established.

Benefits of Having Professionally Designed Garden Borders

Everyone deserves a garden to relax, show off and enjoy, especially on those warm summer evenings. All gardens are different and bespoke, along with our customers and how they use their garden. That’s why we have a thorough design process, to make sure we give you

Year-round interest adding colour, fragrance, shape and texture and taking the vision away from boundary fencing

An investment to your property - plants will develop and mature with time - an established garden border can add the wow factor to your property when having guests visit or if you ever come to sell the house

N

The best plants for your location and soil type. Not all plants do well in every location, and it can take a season to realise that a plant is not taking well to the spot - which essentially is a year wasted. By having us on hand to know from the design stage what plants will thrive well in the border - it saves years of trial and error on your side

N

We know what plant combinations work. The wrong combination of plants in the wrong place can lead to hinderance of plant growth and at worst killing plants or shrubs as they develop - which can be an expensive mistake in the long run.

Brilliant aftercare advice - if you are unsure about the health or identification of a plant, we are always on hand to offer assistance

The Garden Rangers team were very helpful and friendly. They worked very efficiently, were knowledgable and explained clearly what was needed for my tree in terms of pruning and pest control. They were prompt, very tidy and took away all the trimmings. I am really impressed by their service and have used them several times. A very good gang......hardworking and good humoured😁👍

I have used GR's previously and been very happy. AS usual Jonathan turned up and gave me a quote as requested. The work was done promptly and to a high standard with the area left waste free and tidy. GR have done work on another property for me as well. This year Jonathan admitted that it was hardly worth employing them for this job as my tenant had done some work herself. Honesty like this is rare. Thank you to the team for doing a an excellent job. Steve

The team did an excellent job of clearing my very overgrown garden, removing and replacing a rather grim border with shiny new slate, shaping trees and weeding a range of potted plants. They worked hard to complete the tasks in just one day and it's now a pleasure to spend time once again in my garden. I will definitely call on them again in the future for other garden based projects. Thank you!

I moved into a new house and needed the front and rear gardens redesigning. The Garden Rangers team have been absolutely brilliant from start to finish. They listened to what I wanted, came up with some good ideas to complement what I was hoping for and have executed the work to the highest standard and I am absolutely thrilled with my garden. I will definitely use them again for any future work and I highly recommend this company. Brilliant work and a fabulous team.

Our garden had lapsed into a bit of a mess with rambling long hedges and overgrown wild bits, but Jonathan, who's got a first class honours degree in psychology, but prefers the outside - and his team have done an absolutely fantastic job. Friendly, knowledgeable, hard working, and enthusiastic. They are now going to look after us for years to come.
