We make gardens that grow into themselves.

Greenmark designs, builds, and tends living landscapes — layered borders, honest stone, and lawns cared for season by season, not just planted and left.

How we work a garden

Design, build, and tend — the whole living thing.

Most gardens fail in year two, when the planting is in but no one is looking after it. We stay for all three.

i.

Design

We read your soil, light, and slope, then draw a garden that suits the place it’s in — planting plans, hardscape, and a real budget before anything is dug.

  • Site survey & soil test
  • Hand-drawn planting plan
  • Fixed materials budget
ii.

Build

Our own crew lays the paths, walls, and beds and puts every plant in the ground — dry-stone, timber edging, and topsoil we’d grow in ourselves.

  • Stone paths & retaining walls
  • Beds, borders & turf
  • Irrigation & lighting
iii.

Maintain

Then we come back. Seasonal pruning, feeding, and lawn care on a simple monthly plan, so the garden looks better every year instead of tired by August.

  • Seasonal prune & feed
  • Lawn & hedge care
  • Spring & autumn tidy

A garden, three seasons on

The Alder Lane back garden.

It came to us as a flat rectangle of thin grass and a rotting fence — nothing to sit in, nothing to look at from the kitchen window. We were after a garden that would earn its keep every month of the year.

  • SpringStripped the turf, built the stone path, shaped two deep beds.
  • SummerPlanted a layered perennial border — salvia, grasses, and roses.
  • AutumnFed the soil, set spring bulbs, and started the care plan.

From first walk to full bloom

Four seasons, one garden.

A clear path from the first site visit to a garden that’s ours to look after — you always know what comes next.

Step one

Consult

We walk the garden together, test the soil, and talk through how you want to use the space — no charge.

Step two

Design

A hand-drawn plan, a planting palette, and one fixed price. You approve it before we lift a spade.

Step three

Plant

Our crew builds the hardscape and puts in every plant, then mulches and waters it all in.

Step four

Maintain

We come back on a seasonal plan to prune, feed, and keep it looking its best for years.
