Anthea Harrison - Garden Designer

Anthea creates unique gardens by listening to her customers and then applying her own blend of experience and imagination. Her work ranges from a simple planting scheme through to a complete garden design. She can just deliver your garden plans or will manage your whole project from start-to-end.
This is what Anthea says...
"More and more, we can all begin to recognise the value and the potential of our gardens as an extension to our living space. Creative design can help you to realise your aspirations and present ideas that are beyond the obvious."
- Why do you need garden design?
Your garden is most likely the biggest room in your house and usually the least expensive to improve if you compare the metre by metre costs.
A garden design can ensure that your money is spent in the best way possible and costly mistakes are avoided.
Detailed plans allow problems to be smoothed out before any work starts and allows you to budget more accurately. It enables you to break down the task into stages if you need to, while ensuring the whole thing adds up when it is finished. - When is a good time?
Trees and shrubs take time to grow, to reap the rewards, getting started early is a good idea. Dont leave it until you are thinking about moving house!
Depending on the size of the project, it may take several months from commissioning the design to when the garden begins to take shape, so don't wait until spring if you want your garden to be finished for the summer. - About us
Anthea Harrison has built her Garden Design practice on hands-on horticultural experience combined with training and a distinction qualification at the leading Capel Manor college in Enfield.
We promise always to provide you with a quality service. We will get to know you and your garden from the first phone call through to the detailed consultation at your home involving all the users of the garden. From this we can begin to draw up an outline plan for your garden or landscape, be it small or large, from a country residence to a small urban space.
Through our experience, all styles of garden can be created, tending towards the contemporary where you are open to ideas.
Meeting the needs of children can also give the garden that extra dimension. A planting plan brings the last essential ingredient to a successful garden.
Plants can be combined in a stunning theatrical arrangement or create a tranquility much needed in our hectic lives.
Our promise is to achieve balance and harmony to ensure your garden becomes the haven you are looking for.
