Why choose a specialist landscape garden designer, such as Folium Gardens, over a more general design and build landscaping contractor?
- Royal Horticultural Society qualified.
- Specialist Design: We specialise in the design of gardens, which means we offer a focused, creative and considered approach to your garden design project.
- Plant Knowledge: Training and hands-on expert horticultural knowledge of plants and growing conditions that’s needed to create bespoke planting schemes that work for you and your garden.
- Creative vision: Our expertise lies in developing a cohesive design vision for your outdoor space. We will take time to understand what you want and translate this into a great design, taking aesthetics as well as function into account, and considering factors like site conditions, plant preferences as well as hard-landscaping elements.
- Detailed planning: We spend significant time in the planning phase of your project. We create detailed drawings and plans to ensure that the design is exactly what you want before any construction begins.
- Cost: A well executed garden design can save you time and money in the long term, and good garden design will add value to your home.
- A landscaper may not be enough: A landscaper may share some skills with a garden designer, but the emphasis of their work is very different – construction rather than design or planting. A garden design involves multiple elements which all need to work seamlessly together.
- Transparency: Design work is often hidden in the price of construction or landscaping contracts. Our design fees are made clear when we provide you with our detailed estimate.
- Plant Sourcing: We can source and supply the plants for your design at competitive rates, from our trusted and reputable nursery suppliers.
- Planting Service: With our expertise in plants you can trust us to use best practice when planting up your garden to give your investment in beautiful plants the best chance of thriving.
- Safe Hands: Combined we have over 50 years experience in horticulture, design and project management.

If you have the funds to build your new garden, then it’s worthwhile designing it properly!
Folium Gardens create bespoke garden designs which suit your needs and budget, with thought given to all aspects of the design including planting as well as how you’ll use your new garden, both now and in the future.
