Consultation

Usually taking around an hour or so, a consultation incorporates
a site visit and discussion about what you want from your garden or landscape design.
A consultation will generally include advice on any or all of the following:

plant selection based on micro-climate, soil, aspect, purpose and availability
Plant care advice from planting to maturity
pest and disease management based on prevention rather than short term solutions
minimising water use
soil improvement
appropriate use of space and designing for low maintenance
maximum utilisation of desire lines, views, air flow, solar aspect and water run-off.

This will be mostly verbal advice and can include written notes and sketches upon request.
