At Blooming Marvellous Gardens Ltd, we work from the soil up to create beautiful, dynamic outdoor spaces. We find the right plants and materials for you based on sustainable, permaculture principles. We also look to your future needs as a household, designing accessible, pet friendly spaces for all ages.Â

I have thirty years of day-to-day, hands-on landscaping experience and practical gardening knowledge. In addition to private work, I designed outdoor Eco Play & Study spaces for two primary schools in Sussex. I have been recommended by established plant nurseries, and had the privilege of being referred from client to client. Two of BMGLtd’s private gardens have been accepted by the National Garden Scheme (Yellow Book) charity for Open Gardens to show the public positive examples of organic gardening.Â
Â
I grew up in South Africa with its rich botanical heritage, but my landscaping career is rooted in the Sussex Downs. I have a deep love of plants and the natural environment, and enjoy finding design solutions for tricky new builds or overgrown plots, as well as updating established gardens that have lost their lustre.

Good soil health and water management, bee and pollinator supportive planting, and the need to reduce waste are at the heart of our designs. We are also guided by the UK Wildlife Trust to encourage wildlife corridors. Even the smallest space can be an eco sanctuary. Our organic methods of soil cultivation ensure plants thrive with drought resilience, optimising low maintenance and low water need.
We use pollinator friendly plant varieties in biodiverse layouts, in which they can flourish with least interference, cutting down maintenance costs. We recommend local trusted companies for complex groundworks and construction, for specialist tree surgery or for bespoke hedge care, such as laying. If you already use trusted traders, we can work in harmony.

In addition to outdoor site meetings, digital platforms like Pinterest, Zoom and instagram, and message sharing apps like whatsapp, can help us chat remotely, share plans or photos, and bring your ideas to life. If these options are new to you, but you wish to explore them, you’ll be guided to do so.
