The Garden, natures antidote to stress. A place to reflect, invigorate & inspire

My name is Terence McLeod. I have a passion for people and plants and love to transform old, neglected and tired gardens into spaces where people can relax, feel inspired and invigorated.

I've always been passionate about gardening and have over twenty years of experience in horticulture. I've worked on many interesting projects including creating gardens for public houses, planting up pots for Autumn and Winter colour and transforming ordinary gardens in and around St Albans into beautiful vibrant spaces.

Whether its Japanese style planting to give an air of calm and tranquillity or Mediterranean and tropical planting to create an exotic feel, its all possible. I 've recently planted up a sun terrace in St Albans with climbing ornamental hops, topical jasmine and grapes to provide a part shaded pergola for al fresco dining.

My last project saw me creating a traditional English Cottage Garden where fruit, vegetables and herbs were planted alongside cottage garden plants and flowers. A garden that looked great and tasted good too.



Three simple steps to a superb garden: 

1. I visit you, listen and discuss your ideas and vision, hopefully over a cuppa!

2. Send you a quotation with a detailed breakdown of costs including labour, materials and a list of plants you like and or will suit your soil and location.

3. If you are happy with the quote, we can then begin transforming your garden into a beautiful inspiring space.
