Super outcome, thank you. Adam came highly recommended from two different sources. As non-gardeners we gave our aesthetic and functional requirements for planting to Adam for our relatively small (30 sq.m) rear courtyard garden. He responded brilliantly with creative and thoughtful solutions on choice of planting which has exceeded the effect we were hoping to achieve. Installation on the day was meticulous and carried out with great care and flair. We are delighted with the result. Thank you! Blackheath SE3

I am extremely pleased with the design Adam proposed for my rear garden. He listened to my requirements and suggested a planting scheme which I wanted to achieve. The garden has plenty of interest all year round and the hard landscaping complements the plants. Would not hesitate in recommending Adam Garden Design to family and friends.
