Consultation

Ever wished to have an expert take a stroll with you in your garden and obtain sewers to your question. Our consultation services can help you with your gardening and landscaping queries.

Some clients refer to our consultation sessions as “Walkthroughs’, others call them “Advice Meetings” but we tend to consider them more “individualized conversations”. Basically, that is what they are; an attentive, dynamic and interactive conversation. These days Ressources and reference materials are numerous, varied and sparse which is why believe that our in person consultation sessions are beneficial to all.

Either a quick hourlong chat or an entire day’s walkabout, since our sessions are based on an hourly rate we advise all our clients prior to the consultations session to prepare their questions in advance and take their own notes during the consultation session. Sketches can be drawn for some areas in order to facilitate visualization and reminders. These hand rendered or conceptual sketches will summarize the consultation and is an option for clients with smaller gardens or in need of a planting plan for a small to medium size space.
