Garden Design Services in Whanganui

Thoughtful garden design, grounded in ecology and sustainability.I design gardens that balance practicality, beauty and ecological approaches. Each design responds to the site, its surroundings and the people who use it.I am based in Whanganui, working across the wider Manawatū–Whanganui region and on remote projects elsewhere in New Zealand.

I’ve been drawn to gardens since I was a child, growing food and pressing flowers with my grandmother. I grew up on a kiwifruit orchard and later established an avocado orchard with my husband.I enjoy solving problems, finding ways to encourage people to enjoy the outdoors, and seeing how spaces change over time. My approach considers both people and the environment, with a strong focus on ecology and sustainability.New Zealand Diploma in Landscape Design (Level 5)

Let's Talk
