I believe that in order to be a good garden designer, it is vital to also be an active gardener. Therefore I can offer high quality maintenance for more complex and demanding gardens, where expert care is called for.
I also offer specialist maintenance work at the gardens that I have designed and built for previous customers. For more information on the garden design process click here.
If you would like specialist advice relating to any aspect of your garden, I am happy to visit your garden to discuss in more detail. Clients routinely request assistance on plant identification, pests and diseases and general advice on plant care and maintenance.
Some of the services I provide include:
- Garden clearances
- Pruning and cutting back including Wisteria, Clematis, Roses and others
- Tree planting and relocation
- Installation of raised beds and mixed borders
- Planting schemes around structures such as pergolas, trellises and arbors.
- Box topiary
- Pond care
RHS Partner Garden
In the past I have worked at one of the UK’s top gardens, The Vicarage Gardens in Norfolk, assisting with plant care and maintenance, planting schemes and specialist activities such as topiary and expert pruning.
With many years practical experience, RHS technical training and associated qualifications, I will take on large and challenging gardens requiring the highest level of knowledge, skill and expertise.
TESTIMONIALS
We have had many satisfied Clients over the last few years, here is just a small selection of comments from our happy customers.
Richard provides me with great inspiration and practical ideas and advice when it comes to stocking my new beds with trees, shrubs and perennials. I enjoy talking to Richard and am always very upbeat after one of his visits. Richard’s enthusiasm is infectious and I enjoy working in my own garden so much more now that I have Richard’s support and advice to help guide me.
Penny Blood Hill, Norfolk
We hired Richard to provide practical help and advice and to answer all the questions and problems that we have about our garden. Richard is always so helpful and is able to provide high level practical help for those jobs requiring skill and experience like pruning and advising on new plants.

Richard has provided high quality maintenance gardening over the last year or so and has completely transformed my garden. The garden is now looking absolutely marvellous thanks mainly to Richard.
Janice Martham, Norfolk
Our garden was in need of some help and Richard’s knowledge and recommendations were gratefully received. The new gate and fencing look super and I’m really looking forward to seeing everything grow. Richard has some great ideas and we will definitely take him up on more of those. Friendly, helpful and honestly priced. Thank you!
Stacey Sutton, Norfolk
Richard has redesigned and installed a Mediterranean style corner that is really beautiful. Richard is extremely knowledgeable, hard working, very reliable and a real genuinely friendly person. We can’t recommend Richard highly enough.
Mr and Mrs N Winterton, Norfolk
We had a challenging back garden with very damp shade which is poorly drained so we contacted RW Gardens to help out. We are so glad we did as Richard gave us a design which works brilliantly using terraced beds and the right plants for our garden. Thank you Richard, we are very happy with our new garden.
