Herts, Beds, & Bucks
Gardens and Plants is a local, family-run business with garden consultant duo Jan and Howard Browning. We're passionate about helping you to create your dream garden: A place you want to spend time in, that changes beautifully with the seasons, suits your lifestyle and is a true asset to your home.
Realise your dream garden project with our help
As part of our design service, we can offer a virtual walk-through of your new garden. We know it can sometimes be hard to imagine the finished results from a 2D plan. These 3D designs are a great opportunity to see what your space could look like when the hard landscaping is complete and all your new plants have bedded in and matured.
Take a look at one of our projects below to see what a walk-through video could look like for you.
Our Services
We're a small business providing highly experienced consultancy services from landscape planning, species identification and planting plans, to complete garden design and build. In everything we do, we operate to very high standards and focus on three key areas: Beauty – Practicality – Budget
Initial Consultation
An on-site consultation to discuss your garden aspirations and the characteristics of your garden space. During the meeting we will be led by you to collate a list of requirements as the foundations to your garden renovation project. For example: We can explore new landscaping and design ideas, recommend plants that suit your garden, discuss general concepts like colour, texture, site conditions and more specific concepts such as attracting wildlife, preserving water, protecting the soil.
Garden Design
Based on survey plans and by using the latest landscaping computer software, we create a garden design plan, a scaled schematic of your new garden. We present the design to you with styling boards, product ideas and planting idea moodboards.
Other plans are available such as: lighting plans, irrigation plans, 3D plans and walkthrough videos to bring your garden potential to life.
Planting
With over 25 years horticultural experience and several RHS medals, Jan has a passion for creating beautiful beds and boarders to make your garden a GARDEN.
Planting services include the following options: Plant consultancy; plant audits; plant sourcing; garden maintenance schedule configuration; on-site plant layout; on-site planting and planting plans.
Landscaping
Turning the garden design into an actual garden takes a team that can attend to details. Our friendly landscaping team and project management staff work together, consulting with you, to ensure the design is adhered to, you get the results you want and expect, all within the agreed budget.
This is such a great value service. Contact us today to finally make that decision you have been putting off for so long.
