At Petal Gardens, we follow a clear and collaborative process to ensure every garden is designed, built and nurtured to perfection. Whether you’re looking for a full garden transformation or a tailored planting scheme, our structured approach guides you from idea to completion with clarity and care.
Our journey begins with a friendly call to understand your needs, style, and vision. If we’re a good fit, we’ll arrange a video consultation to take a closer look at your garden, talk through ideas, show sample projects, and provide a bespoke design fee tailored to your project size and scope.
We visit your garden to gain a deep understanding of the space, your needs and inspirations. We take photos, measurements and sketch layout possibilities. You’ll receive a detailed written design brief summarising everything discussed, ready for your feedback and approval. For more complex spaces, we’ll recommend a professional topographical survey to guide accurate planning.
We create a hand-drawn or digital sketch plan of your future garden, including zones, pathways, and features based on your vision. Moodboards offer inspiration for planting, surfaces, and styling. We include a preliminary budget guide and invite your feedback. After discussion, we revise the design to match your needs.
Your design takes full shape with scaled drawings, enhanced visuals, and a more defined layout of features, structures, and planting zones. We may provide 3D renderings to help visualise key areas. Moodboards are refined and aligned with real materials. You’ll receive an updated cost outline, and we revise everything until it’s just right.
At this stage, your design is fully developed. If you’re only seeking a design service, this is a natural pause point before you proceed with landscaping. We’ll equip you with all the documentation needed to implement the design with your chosen contractor or at your own pace.
