The Best Gardeners in Hartlip, Kent, United Kingdom (2025)

Terry and the team were fantastic from start to finish. Terry took our ideas and made them so much better. The team set to work - they were always on time and are so hard working and very skilled. We can’t speak highly enough of them all. Thank you for our fabulous garden!

Totally revamped our back garden and patio. Great bunch of guys and thoroughly over the moon with the results and would highly recommend them

Moved into new place decided to Have garden landscaped used Swale landscaping at our old property 10/15 yrs ago

Stayed on the adjacent caravan site, so just a passing comment on the Nursery. All the stock looks to be fresh and strong, so should grow well in the garden. We live just a bit too far away, otherwise I think we would have filled the car & caravan with hanging baskets. Prices are all very good value, the staff are all friendly. Bear in mind that it is cash only

Nice plants, Not expensive. Have been here a few times always buy something. Cash only, dont take card. Staff helpful and friendly.

Tucked away down a country lane, this is a small(ish) nursery selling a wide variety of annuals and perennials. Never had a bad plant from them - even those on offer that seemed to be past their sell-by date. Relaxed atmosphere and the proprietor is always up for a chat at quiter times. The prices seem to be very competitive too. Be warned: they do NOT accept credit/debit cards - cash only at time of writing. Also, no gift shop, café, restaurant etc. - you can only buy plants, shrubs, compost and the like.

Went there today and got some plants. It is by far the cheapest nursery around and brilliant Value for money. Plants are always in amazing condition and have a decent amount of stock. Awesome nursery all around.

Excellent service and communication. The job was cutting back a 25 year old tree. I wholeheartedly recommend Tudor Rose

Excellent workmanship at a very reasonable price. Very pleased, and would definitely use again.

Beautifully created garden. Created a little oasis in a small awkward garden. very professional and great workmen, with a high standard of work. Worth every penny. Will be using the garden at every moment possible...

From start to finish were efficient, friendly and sensibly priced - we are delighted with the end result.

As a garden designer, I've worked with lots of landscape contractors and what I find refreshing about Vu is how quickly and efficiently their office administration is. This is, of course, on top of the fact that they do a great job on site, thinking carefully about a solution and getting the job done in a timely manner. They are polite and lovely people to work with. I can not recommend them highly enough.

Vu is a special company. It’s not often that you work with a contractor who is so approachable, friendly and professional as well as being absolutely spot on with their workmanship. They really care about our project and working with them has been an absolute delight from start to finish.

Vu designed and landscaped my garden recently which was basically just turf at the start. I am delighted with the design and outcome and love to watch my beautiful plants taking root and growing in what now looks like an established garden, after only a short time. There have been many compliments and viewings from my neighbours. requesting the contact details of Vu. I would single out Filip, who was responsible for the design and planting and who was very happy and willing to sort out any questions that arose. The team working on the garden were very polite and hard working in all weathers and I would highly recommend Vu to anyone thinking of building a new garden or making changes to an existing one.

Vu have transformed our garden. Ralph and his team have always been very helpful and willing to deal with any issues that arose as the work went along. Nothing has been too much trouble for them, and our site is not the easiest, with steps up a relatively steep slope to navigate. The standard of work has been excellent and we are delighted with the results, added to which they have been a delight to work with. We are happy to recommend them.

100% Service from initial enquiry. Sadly, I am in a Conservation Area, Niall already knew that. He took care of everything, with permits etc. They all arrived on time today, organised everything between themselves. We had a few laughs. But most important.... They all did a fantastic job. I can recommend their service as above.... 💯

Up & Out Platforms have worked closely with the team at JBL over the past several years and would thoroughly recommend them to anyone looking for any aspects of tree works to be undertaken. Their approach to safe working sees them work closely with us and their professionalism is top level every time.

From quote to completion,they were totally professional, they worked clean and tidy, and the final work result was excellent, I would no hesitation in recommending them to anyone

The team from JBL removed a 40' cedar tree from my back garden. They turned up on time worked all day in wind rain and stair-rod rain until it was done and then cleared up afterwards. Absolutely excellent ,would highly recommend

I recently had my garden landscaped and needed a variety of plants. I was recommended Gardening World by a number of people. They had a great selection and their plants looked healthy and colourful. The staff were helpful when I asked questions. I also spent over a certain amount to receive a 10% discount. I would go back there again.

Fantastic Garden Center. Hidden gem of a place where the staff look after their customers as well as their plants. Staggeringly good range of plants and the staff know exactly what is where and how to place it in your garden so it can flourish. The cafe is highly recommended and the lady serving today 24.6.24 was kind and attentive. I cant recommend it enough. Special thanks to Viv on the tills (it definitely began with a V) for directing me with pinpoint accuracy to where i needed to be and for being so helpful and kind. I want to work there lol.

First time visiting here. It has a huge variety of plants and the prices are very reasonable!!! The staff are very friendly and answer any questions and gave advice which was really helpful. Will definitely be back!

Update 2024 July Massive range of brightly coloured plants to suit all tastes, we thought it was a little expensive though. Staff nice and friendly. Some more unusual plants are stocked than the normal run of the mill garden centre. Incredible range of plants and you get 10% off if you are over 65 on certain days of the week.
