Services
Free advice
Do you need a simple question answered? Maybe you’re looking to find out what time of year to carry out a task in the garden or find the name of a particular plant? If I can give you an answer without the need for great detail then I will offer you this service free.
Detailed questions
Maybe you’re looking for help and need a more detailed answer to solve an issue, I will send you all the required information that you need, including any reason why the problem has occurred, what you need to do to resolve this and what to do in the future to prevent this happening again.
Maintenance programmes
Maybe you’re looking to start something new in the garden, do you fancy growing vegetables for the first time or starting a wild flower area within your garden but not sure where or how to start and how to get the best results. With my maintenance programmes I will create a tailor made 12-month plan that will guide you through the jobs that you need to do and when and how to do them.
The plans can be adapted for most areas of the garden, including lawns, vegetables, wildflowers, even caring for borders.
For an extra cost you can also receive a 12-month support plan that goes alongside the maintenance plan, so if you need any extra help, you will have me at hand to guide you further.
Design and inspiration
Are you looking to update an area of your garden?
Maybe you want to design it yourself but need inspiration on how to go about it. My design and inspiration package has been created to help every step of the way; I will discuss possible ideas with you and give you information on what you should be looking at to achieve your goal. We will take the process one step at a time until you feel you are confident with the result you want to achieve; I can also create a design for you if you require me to do so.
Garden visit
If you live in the Suffolk or Norfolk area, I am able to make a visit to your garden to discuss any problems or issues you feel you may have. I will give you advise on any improvements you can make. I will compile you a written report including any suggestion for improvement and any answer to questions you raise on the visit.
Virtual visits maybe possible if you live further afield.
Teaching sessions
Would you like to broaden your gardening skills or maybe learn something new, with my teaching sessions I will come to your garden, again in the Norfolk and Suffolk area and we can cover an area of horticulture with which you need help with, propagation being my specialist subject.
Please email me on rue@gardenerstoolbox.co.uk if you feel there are any other issues you have that I haven’t covered here and I will see if I am able to help.
