Maintenance plans

Gardens are much more enjoyable when you feel in control of upkeep. Brighten My Garden’s maintenance plans explain the most useful techniques to keep your plants looking and feeling their best.

You’ll benefit from an easy-to-understand plan arranged by each month of the year and specific plants and garden areas. You can use the plan yourself or use it to get best value from your gardener or landscaper.

Plans start from £120 for a visit, plan, and discussion.

Skills training

Treat yourself to a skills workshop with an expert in your garden. For example, learn how to prune plants with confidence, grow food and flowers organically, support climbers, and grow in containers.

You’ll benefit from a bespoke experience tailored to what you want to know with demonstration and troubleshooting.

Skills training and coaching is £80 per hour or £200 for three hours for up to three people.

Watering system

Correctly watering plants is essential for good growth (and rather therapeutic!). But watering lots of plants takes a lot of time and is difficult when away from home.

Brighten My Garden designs and supplies watering systems that deliver the right amount of water for each plant without wasting water. 

You’ll benefit from an easy-to-use system arranged by different types of plants and garden areas. We take away the hassle and cost of working out what components to use. We also show you how to update the system yourself, so it’s flexible as plants change.

A new watering system is particularly useful if you’ve just spent money on new plants because it reduces the chance of losses.

Watering system design and supply start from £200 to visit, plan and supply. You can install the system yourself or let us help.

Planting plans and garden layout

Sometimes maintenance overtakes enjoyment in a garden. Brighten My Garden restores the right balance by updating your garden to make the most of existing and new features and plants.

Our designs will have the right kind of upkeep to suit your lifestyle and interest in gardening.

We offer planting design services to refresh one or more garden areas. Plus fuller garden layout design to rethink a larger space with new layout.

This can be combined with maintenance plans, skills training, and watering systems.
