We really didn't know what to do with our small rear garden attached to a new build house. After reviewing numerous websites we chose MMGD. Initially we asked Melissa to provide a One Off Consultation /Garden Inspiration service. The meetings helped us to think through & define what we were were looking to achieve. Melissa worked closely with us to develop the ideas further via the Flash Planting Service. It was Melissa's vision & creativity that ensured our objective of an attractive, colourful garden providing a haven for wildlife, was delivered. We love the end result. Very good value for money.

We wanted some help figuring out the layout in our garden, what to prioritise and where to start. Melissa's One Off Consultation 'Unique Garden Design Advice Service' really helped us to figure out some of the zoning issues and now we are excited to move forward with our garden. We would highly recommend.

Melissa knows her stuff and has transformed not only both my gardens but also my attitude to my gardens. She's happy to just come and prune but also will recommend planting and if required carry out all the planting. Can't recommend highly enough.

Thank you for giving my fruit trees some much needed attention this week. They looked better immediately and I'm sure that with your expert attention in the future they will get back on track. It was also good to hear that you can source a contractor that can replace the posts that the trees have now outgrown and I look forward to catching up over the coming weeks about next steps. Thanks once again, Emma Smith More...

I got SO much value from the one off consultation. It was very helpful to take some time to focus on what challenges I face with my garden as well the good points. Melissa came up with several brilliant ideas which would never have occurred to me and I was left with a very professional looking plan to take forward. More...

I was lucky enough to spend a couple of hours with Melissa in my garden. I arranged the consultation as we’re in the process of having new windows and doors fitted and I needed advice on the best way to prune back our existing planting close to the house to allow the work to be undertaken. As it turned out, this was the least of what we covered in those hours! I absolutely loved our time together and the consultation far exceeded my expectations. Melissa is extremely knowledgeable, a great teacher and very good fun! I’m keen to improve my own gardening skills and Melissa took the time to describe to me what she was doing and why, in the hope that I might be able to do it next time on my own. We agreed on a plan of works for the front of the house which will include several more ‘teaching’ visits over the next 6 months. Having made a plan for the front we moved on to a really enjoyable, visionary, creative conversation about the possibilities for our small yard garden at the back of the house. At the end of the 2 hours I felt totally inspired about the future of what is essentially quite a small and uninspiring space. No small feat! I also spent the rest of the weekend gardening. I’m really looking forward to Melissa’s great eye and superb knowledge influencing the shape of our garden over the next few years. More...

Melissa was very helpful and quick to supply us with the strulch. We find it great to keep the weeds at bay and those that appear are much easier to remove. The strulch also improves the soil quality. More...
