Draw first, then plant

Brendan Westbrook grew up among plant nurseries. Since 2009 he has been building gardens, from thirty-square-metre city plots to old country gardens.

Every garden starts on our drawing board: we measure up, look at sun, wind and soil, and draw a planting plan to scale. So you know up front what’s coming, and what it costs.

What customers say

  • They drew the whole garden to scale first, down to the last geranium. In May it looked exactly like that, and now we sit out every evening.

    Ellen and Mark, Dalkey
  • Our forty metres of beech hedge are cut twice a year. Always straight, and not a leaf left on the footpath.

    Henry Walsh, Foxrock
  • Small city garden, big wishes. Brendan thought about every square metre.

    Sinéad, Booterstown

Questions from the garden

Do you come and look first?

Yes. We call out, measure the garden and talk about what you want. Within a week you have a quote, and a drawing if it’s a design.

When is the best time to build a garden?

Paving can be done almost all year, except in frost. Trees and hedges we like to plant between November and March, while they rest.

Do you take the green waste?

Yes. Branches, leaves and old soil go to the composting site. That’s simply in the quote.
