Wildlife Gardens

​We design and plant wildlife gardens that invite nature back into your outdoor space - creating vibrant, biodiverse habitats that support pollinators, birds, and small mammals while offering year-round beauty and tranquillity.​  Our approach:

​​

Site Assessment & Soil Preparation

We begin with a detailed survey of your garden’s conditions - sunlight, drainage, soil type, and existing vegetation - to ensure the right plants thrive in the right places.

​

Water Feature 

We incorporate water which is an essential support for a diverse range of species.  From birds and mammals to amphibians and insects, all wildlife relies on water for drinking, bathing, breeding, and cooling down - especially during dry spells.  It creates microhabitats that attract frogs, dragonflies and pollinators, while muddy edges offer minerals for butterflies and bees.  Water features, even small ones, turns a garden into an ecosystem that nurtures biodiversity and enhances the natural balance.

Native & Pollinator-Friendly Planting

Our plant palette prioritises native wildflowers, grasses, shrubs, and trees that provide nectar, berries, and shelter.  Think oxeye daisies, hawthorn and hazel - chosen for their ecological value and seasonal interest.

​​

Layered Planting for Habitat Diversity

We create varied planting zones - meadows, hedgerows, and woodland edges - to support a wide range of species. This layered approach mimics natural ecosystems and enhances visual depth.

​​​

Wildlife Features

We incorporate log piles, bird boxes and bee hotels to encourage nesting, foraging, and breeding. These features are sensitively placed to blend with the landscape and maximise ecological benefit.

​​​

Low-Intervention Maintenance

Wildlife gardens are designed to evolve naturally.  We offer guidance on gentle maintenance - like seasonal cutting and selective weeding - to support long-term biodiversity.

The Result

A thriving, self-sustaining garden - whether you are drawn to the flutter of butterflies, the song of birds, or the quiet joy of watching nature unfold, our wildlife gardens offer a meaningful connection to the outdoors.
