About us

Nature at the core

Plants have a magical way of transforming our surroundings and they stand at the heart of everything we do. Our mission is to breathe life back into our cities, making them resilient, liveable, healthy, and enjoyable again - that’s why our motto is ‘Turning the Grey Green’.

Bespoke design

Each bespoke design is not only tailored to individual preferences but also crafted with sustainability at its core. We take pride in our unique approach, which integrates FSC-approved timber, ensuring that our creations are both eco-friendly and of the highest quality.

Maintenance

Our eco-friendly electric vans ensure that our aftercare services are as green as our designs. Our comprehensive maintenance services ensure that your green spaces remain vibrant and flourishing, whether you want a one-time maintenance visit or regular care.

We’ve worked with some wonderful clients
