Coastal Gravel Garden

Designing a resilient and harmonious coastal garden.

Salty and exposed, this garden needed careful planning and plant selection. We planted this garden for a local landscape architect and have been maintaining the garden alongside the client ever since. We were able to plant up a whole, new adjacent plot using the existing plants from the original garden.

Plant selection for long-term success.

Selecting the right plants for the conditions terroir will ensure the best long term results. This is true in terms of being cost effective as well as aesthetically. Embracing the feel of the wider landscape you not only select the correct species but they will also look much more at home and like they’ve lived there forever.

“Don't just take our word for it”

Just to thank you for your excellent service and efforts on behalf of our garden. It is already giving us so much pleasure and Peter who has never taken gardening seriously shows it off to everyone who visits.

“Best service ever”

The planting is now complete and is incredible… The design, choice and positions of plants were all spot on… Overall, I could not be happier with both gardens and the efforts put in by PlantSmith are to be admired. I felt I was the important one and time was not an issue, a satisfied customer was the goal and it was achieved.
