Green Expectations were a wonderful find. They have transformed our mainly lawned garden and we now have a border which has been planted out with a colourful mix of plants which we know will give us great pleasure. Ian was knowledgeable and worked with our ideas and we are so pleased with the finished result. Can highly recommend their professional service. Steve and Debbie McLeod

Ian and his team have transformed our drab and bog standard garden into a beautiful oasis. He worked patiently with the vision I had of a cottage garden and made it a reality. He is a pleasure to work with, flexible, realistic, well organised and kept us informed and involved at all times. Cannot recommend Green expectations highly enough.

Brilliant Gardener - would defo recommend. Ian and his team came around to do our north-facing back garden which was a challenge in Battersea as we needed plants that did not need a lot of direct sunlight. Really happy with the work done and would definitely recommend him on to friends.
