Philip Edwards Garden Design comprises myself and my partner Judith – plus any contractors needed when gardens are being installed. Gardens have been my life since leaving school. In 1987, I was awarded a certificate in landscape construction via a full-time course at Merrist Wood Agricultural College in Surrey. I learnt design skills during my first job, before in 1996 setting up my own company to offer both garden design and construction.

I enjoy designing for all types of garden, from small courtyards to large estates, from contemporary to historic gardens, from family gardens to retirement gardens, from newbuild to listed properties. As a result of my long and wide experience, I am able to combine an expertise in hard and soft construction with a detailed knowledge of planting schemes for shrubs and trees appropriate to a garden's specific soil and climate conditions.

Additional services we can provide include authentic hand-made pebble mosaics made to unique designs suggested by clients; and highly-specialised and timely pruning of shrubs, roses and fruit trees. See examples in the Portfolio.
