It doesn't matter where you live and how big or small your garden, it's possible to have a piece of the countryside right on your doorstep. In your design we will concentrate on the sort of flowers, trees and shrubs that naturally grow wild in this country. Planted informally, they will create just the right sort of natural countryside feel.
We will encourage wild creatures into your garden by providing them with food, water and shelter. By planting nectar-producing flowers we will attract insects which are the basis of the food chain and the vibrant ecosystem that your garden will become. The ideal way to provide water for wildlife is through an informal pond, but the need for water can be met through something as simple as a bird bath. We can design in shelter for wildlife in a variety of ways: trees and shrubs, patches of long grass, log piles and perhaps a hedge. Crucially, your natural garden will not require the application of chemicals pesticides because once it is established you will have a balanced ecosystem in which the pests are kept under control by other creatures.
