From garden consultation, planting plans for beds & borders, to full garden design, I can help you at any stage of your garden journey.

The Areas I Cover

I cover the whole of Dartmoor Area and anywhere within an hour's drive from my base at Brentor, including Tavistock, Yelverton, Plymouth, Okehampton, Ashburton, Buckfastleigh and Launceston.

I am also happy to travel further afield but may have to charge additional travel costs. I can also do planting plans from photos or videos of the space if needed.

‘We asked Emma to suggest planting for our new wildlife pond. She did this and impressed us enough to ask her to design and plant all the area around and in the pond, a substantial area. She produced first class beautifully drawn plans showing every plant. She then sourced and supplied all of the plants and trees. She and her team then planted the entire area. They are lovely people to have around. She has remained available for monitoring and suggesting improvements while always being open to our requirements and suggestions. After just over a year we cannot believe how the pond and surroundings look. We were and are very impressed with Emma’s work. - Bob -Devon Consuls
