Hi, I'm Kevin, and I run Totnes Gardening. For years, I’ve been passionate about helping folks in Totnes create gardens they truly love. I believe a beautiful garden is more than just plants in the ground; it’s a living, breathing space that reflects your personality and brings you joy. And that’s what I strive to create for every one of my clients.
What I Do at Totnes Gardening (and What I Love About It)
At Totnes Gardening, I offer a full range of planting services, tailored to the unique needs of our local gardens. Here’s a bit about what I do, and what I personally enjoy:
Garden Design & Planting Plans: I love the initial consultation, sitting down with a client and hearing their ideas for their dream garden. From there, I can create a design that works perfectly with their space, soil, and style. It’s about finding the right plants that will thrive here in Totnes.
Seasonal Planting: There’s something special about seeing a garden change throughout the year. I handle everything from planting vibrant spring bulbs that burst with color after a long winter, to choosing the perfect summer blooms that attract pollinators, and selecting hardy perennials that provide structure and interest even in the colder months.
Tree and Shrub Planting: Planting a tree is like planting a legacy. I carefully select each tree and shrub, considering its mature size, root system, and how it will fit into the existing landscape. It’s about choosing the right plant for the right place.
Vegetable Garden Establishment: I get a real kick out of helping people grow their own food. I can help you set up a productive vegetable garden, from preparing the soil and choosing the right crops to providing ongoing advice and support. There’s nothing like the taste of a homegrown tomato!
Hedging and Screening: A well-placed hedge can transform a property, providing privacy, defining boundaries, and adding to the overall aesthetic. I’ll help you choose the perfect hedging plants and ensure they’re planted and maintained for optimal growth.
