Holland Park gardens deserve planting that complements their architecture as much as their outlook. Whether you’re near Kyoto Garden or a short walk from the Design Museum, we build flower beds with structure, colour and longevity. From new bed creation to refreshing tired borders, we focus on clean lines and strong plant combinations. The result is a garden that feels curated, not cluttered.
In the Holland Park area, we regularly work on large Victorian houses, mansion conversions and other period properties across W11 and W14. These gardens often have shaded boundaries, mature trees, and pockets of dry soil where planting struggles without preparation. We tailor plant choices to aspect and microclimate, balancing perennials, annuals and bulbs for a layered look. If you have limited access or a compact courtyard, we plan deliveries and waste removal accordingly.
Our process starts with a site visit, clear planting brief and practical design plan, then soil preparation, bed formation and planting. We use quality composts, mulches and edging to help beds settle quickly and stay tidy. Homeowners trust Fine Landscaping for punctual scheduling, careful workmanship and transparent recommendations. After installation, we provide straightforward aftercare guidance so your beds keep improving year after year.
Gardens in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea often combine mature tree cover with sheltered, warmer microclimates. We frequently encounter compacted ground, dry shade and restricted access typical of mansion conversions and Victorian plots. Parking and loading can be tight around Kensington and Notting Hill, so we plan materials and timings to minimise disruption. Our approach keeps planting resilient while respecting neighbouring properties and local expectations.

Costs vary with bed size, access, soil condition and planting density. As a guide, small bed refreshes with soil improvement and planting can start from around £450–£900. New bed creation with edging, full soil preparation, mulching and a considered planting scheme is commonly £1,200–£3,500+. Larger front-and-back garden border projects can be £4,000–£10,000+ depending on specification and plant selection.
A straightforward bed refresh is often completed in half a day to one day. Creating new beds with excavation, soil conditioning, edging and full planting usually takes 1–3 days. Larger schemes across multiple borders may take 3–7 days, especially if access is limited or waste removal is complex. Timescales also depend on plant availability, weather, irrigation needs and whether we’re working around existing hard landscaping.
In most cases, creating or improving flower beds is permitted and doesn’t require planning permission. However, restrictions can apply if your property is listed, within a conservation area, or if works affect protected trees or boundary walls. We’ll flag any potential issues during the survey and can advise on best practice for root protection and drainage. If permissions or notifications are needed, we’ll help you understand the steps before work begins.
We provide a 10-year warranty on workmanship for the elements we install, such as bed formation, edging and any associated ground preparation. Plant performance depends on weather and aftercare, but we select robust varieties for the site conditions and give clear watering and maintenance guidance. If something looks wrong soon after completion, we’ll inspect promptly and put it right where the issue relates to our installation. Ongoing maintenance can be arranged for peace of mind.
We can create anything from formal, clipped borders to relaxed cottage-style planting. Popular options include evergreen structure with seasonal bulbs, long-flowering perennials for continuity, and annual colour pockets for summer impact. For finishes, we offer bark or compost mulches, decorative gravels, and edging in steel, brick, stone or timber to suit period properties. We’ll recommend combinations based on light levels, soil type, and the look you want to achieve.
