What do you do if: You want to change your garden, but you aren't a brilliant gardener, how can you work out which plants to use or how many you need to buy... wouldn't it be great if there was a company that would do just that...! It would be even better if there was a company that would create a design for you and tell you exactly how to create it and look after the plants afterwards! And it would be even more amazing if they could do this without ever having to visit you. And OMG if this could all be provided at an affordable price; well you'd be delighted, wouldn't you!

Thank you very much for your kind words Hari, I really enjoyed creating your design too!
I will look forward to seeing your garden once it's all finished. But I hope you are not working too hard creating it; it's far too hot! :)

Raised beds and patio

Having redesigned part of my garden I had a blank canvas to work with. I explained what I wanted to get from the plot and I was given a comprehensive plan with all the plants. What I really appreciated was the very informative information about the plants and how to look after them.
Also to see the design in picture form really helped.
Service was quick, professional and easy to use.
Thanks so much Plant Plots

Fantastic design and service - highly recommended

After completion of an extension, we were left with a tiny “building site” of a garden and were at an absolute loss as to what to do with it! Lady luck was on our side when we finally found the PlantPlots website and their amazing design service.

We cannot recommend Rachel and the team’s work more highly. Simply put, Rachel is a miracle worker and lovely person.

Rachel put a great deal of time and effort into understanding exactly what we wanted, discussing all aspects of the design with us along the way, what we liked and didn’t like and taking on board our budget and all practicalities (including our distinct lack of “green fingers”!)

We are absolutely delighted with the final design and accompanying detailed plans; we really are thrilled. The amount of careful consideration and attention to detail greatly surpassed all of our expectations, and all at a very reasonable price.

What we also liked about the service is it is independent and just about you; a traditional garden landscaper both designing and building/ implementing a garden has perhaps a vested interest in making it either as easy or profitable for them as possible, PlantPlots are designing just for you.

PlantPlots clearly care passionately about what they do and their customers…it shows in their designs and is a service I would absolutely recommend to all.

I loved my design from Plant Plots

I loved my design from Plant Plots! The company was very responsive, and the plan really fit my style. The more I look at it, the more I like it! I look forward to using them again next year to get a design for my back yard as well as the front.

Good afternoon Holly
Thank you very much for the review. We all loved your design too, we will look forward to seeing some photos once it's done. Which of the 2 designs did you prefer in the end?

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Plant border from scratch.

I contacted Rachel @Plantpots to do a personalised planting scheme for me. She was very friendly and approachable. She asked what I wanted to achieve and what where my plants/colour preferences. I sent her some pictures of my garden and next thing I had a very thorough planting schedule and garden design with planting and care instructions!!! Very impressed by her work and reasonably priced too. I will definitively contact her again for more!!!

Highly recommended - thank you

We moved to a new house, with a decent enough garden, which we could see had potential but we just didn't have the expertise to know how to maximise that potential.
We did not want to pay landscape gardener prices, and my husband is quite happy to get his hands muddy, so it was a case of seeking expert advice rather than 'getting someone in to do it'.
Rachel McCartain is certainly an expert! She listened to what we liked and disliked about the garden and responded to what we wanted. She also came up with some more ambitious plans for making the back flower bed really stunning; frankly, we would have wandered around a garden centre, bought some random stuff, spent a fortune and not achieved anything half as nice!
The plans are really user-friendly and I liked the fact that she understood we were on a budget. Having just bought a house, we were keen to make it our own but certainly not in a position to be splashing oodles of cash.
If you are needing some inspiration, or have a gardening problem that needs solving, then I really recommend Plant Plots. I couldn't find any other company that offers exactly the same service, so I'm glad I found them.

Thank you Amanda, I am looking forward to seeing the pictures of your garden, once your husband has been out there digging! Enjoy the weather this weekend - hopefully it will be far too nice to be digging.

Wish I'd found PlantPlots earlier!

I bought a house with a large garden a couple of years and, although the garden was in a reasonable state, it had since deteriorated over that time simply because I didn't know the first thing about gardening. I was baffled by all the gardening terminology, confused about pruning, didn't know a herbaceous from a deciduous. Most gardening websites just don't simplify things for novices so trying to figure out a suitable planting scheme was a nightmare. But, all that changed when I came across PlantPlots.

Rachel McCartain is a genius. The gardening information on the website is clear and easy to understand - even for an absolute beginner - but it is her garden design service that is truly incredible. After only a couple of email exchanges about my requirements, Rachel provided a complete garden design pack. This included a list of what to plant and where to plant it, how to disguise my ugly shed, tips on how to make the most of the garden space and, most important, advice on how to look after the plants at different times of the year.

The design Rachel provided is amazing in so many ways. Not only does it look incredible but it was completed easily (without relying on the services of tradesmen), cheaply (all the plants were easily sourced and suited the pocket) and quickly (finished over the course of two full-weekends). I now have a beautiful garden just in time for the summer.

I can't thank Rachel enough and I know that PlantPlots will be a huge success.

Ah, thank you very much. The whole 'raison d'etre' for PlantPlots was for people exactly like your goodselves. So many people would love to have a better looking garden but just don't know enough about plants to create one.

Do send us some photo's of the finished result - and thank you very much for your custom.

Enjoy your garden this summer!

Lovely plan - thank you

I had no idea where to start with my garden project, so I was happy to receive a well-thought-out plan from Plant Plots.. Rachel had put a lot of effort into understanding my requirements. So I was able to make a start and get on with the job.

I found the website very informative

I found the website very informative, user friendly and easy to dip in and out of different sections. Really looking forward to receiving my order and putting your suggestions into practise.
I will definitely use plantpots.com as a 'go to' site in the future and love the idea of helping gardeners make the most of their own plot without necessarily spending a large amount.
