Ecologically Informed Design

Bringing together ecology, design and gardening to meet the requirements of 21st century landscapes.

Good planting design that supports biodiversity, is sustainable and low maintenance.

Plantforms was established in 2007 and has evolved into a well established planting design consultancy for landscape professionals and private clients.

Most of my work comes from Garden Designers and Landscape Architects. Private clients are also welcome where there is a real enthusiasm for planting.

Teaching and training are also core aspects of the business.

The vision is to produce sutainable AND beautiful planting schemes that begin to take on a life of their own and never remain the same from one year to the next.

So called ‘weeds’ often make welcome additions to my schemes and they generally get richer and richer over the years.

There is no illusions about the work it takes to make these lasting and successful but it is a lot less than you might think.
