Gagajoo Gardens and Landscapes

What we do

Soft landscaping

Lawns, borders and planting chosen for your soil and your light, so the garden fills in and thrives year on year.

Soft landscaping goes in last and does most of the talking.

What we plant

  • Seeding and turfing
  • Tree and shrub planting, including hedging
  • Herbaceous planting, seasonal bedding and hanging baskets
  • Semi-mature trees
  • Wildflower meadows
  • Memorial trees
  • Ponds and environmental work

Ground first

Planting only works if the ground under it does. Site clearance, topsoil, cultivation and amelioration — the unglamorous half of the job. Get it wrong and good plants sulk for years.

Choosing what goes in

We look at your soil, your light and how much time you actually want to spend out there with a pair of secateurs, then work through colours and varieties that suit the garden and the way you'd use it. We can plant to a design we've drawn ourselves, or work from plans and ideas you already have.

What we don't do

No, we don't do tree surgery. We know some good tree surgeons though, and we'll happily give you a name.

Getting started
