I moved into a new build property with the typical uninspiring square turfed back garden with a patio which was too small to be useful. I added a shed and then had absolutely no idea what to do next! I found Jane by Google search and she’s been brilliant. Lots of ideas I would never have thought of, and really professional with landscaping and planting plans so I had the detail…and the end result is so much better than I could have ever thought. Jane also looks at the additional things which, if it was her garden she would fit, so I also have an irrigation system, waterbutt, a bee hotel and other great suggestions! Would absolutely recommend her.

Jane and her team have completely transformed a bare and uninteresting garden into a beautiful space. She is a joy to work with, she's enthusiastic, very knowledgeable, and incredibly hardworking. From the initial design stage, including lots of ideas we'd never have thought of, through hard-landscaping and final planting, Jane has responded promptly to all our queries, and everything has been completed on time and on budget. Thank you, Jane (and Phil) for a brilliant job, we thoroughly recommend Poison Ivy Design.

Jane has now completed two projects for me: the first being a hard-landscaped rose circle, and more recently the remodeling of what was a very narrow and mean back patio, but which has now been transformed into a wonderful sunny dining and entertaining area, integrating previously stand-alone parts. Both projects were design and build, executed on-time and to budget. They included full-planting. Furthermore she and her team were not put off by executing the bulk of the work in challenging conditions early spring, with only a few days delay for weather, so come spring-proper all was ready to use. So, in summary I'm extremely pleased with the results. It's given a new lease of life to a previously neglected area, nicely complementing the rest of the garden, and a very useful and sociable additional space in the house.

I found Poison Ivy via a Google search and Jane was quick to respond to my initial email. I had never 'designed' a garden from scratch and didn't really know what I wanted, more what I didn't want. She asked pertinent questions about what I wanted from my 'new space' and listened to my waffly answers. I loved the finished design but also made some 'minor' tweaks when I worked out things I did want. Jane helped me find someone to carry out the hard landscaping and I LOVE the finished product. I have some plants but still have enough gaps to let the garden evolve as I explore what plants might be out there for me to discover.

Recently used Jane and her team for a redesign of my patio area. Very professional work ethic, always keeping me informed at every stage. Hard working and trustworthy. Workforce very polite and respectful. The work was carried out on time and to a high standard. Jane went above and beyond taking care of my garden ensuring that my plants were resited where necessary. I am already making plans to use Poison Ivy Garden Design to advise me on replanting and reshaping my flower beds. They come highly recommended 😏.!!
