Garden planting in Beckenham requires understanding the quirks of BR3 and SE20's varied terrain. From the compact courtyard gardens near Clock House station to the generous plots around Park Langley, each space demands its own approach. Years of working with everything from shaded Victorian side returns to sun-baked suburban lawns means knowing exactly which plants flourish where.
Smart planting starts with soil assessment and ends with plants positioned for their best chance at thriving. Clay-tolerant perennials form the backbone, while carefully chosen seasonal additions provide colour throughout the year. Proper spacing prevents that overcrowded mess after two summers, and strategic placement ensures mature heights won't block windows or paths. Each plant gets individually prepared planting holes with appropriate amendments.
Local knowledge beats generic advice every time. Having planted hundreds of Beckenham gardens, from Eden Park's exposed hillsides to sheltered spots near Crystal Palace Park, means recommending plants that genuinely work here.

Most planting happens within 7-10 days of confirmation, though spring and autumn rushes might extend to 2-3 weeks. Winter planting for bare-root specimens often needs just 3-5 days' notice.
Plants come with 10-year establishment support - if anything fails despite proper care, it gets replaced. This covers plant health, not storm damage or neglect, giving genuine peace of mind for your investment.
Definitely - established plants often just need better companions. Careful assessment identifies keepers worth designing around, problem plants needing removal, and specimens that might thrive better relocated within your garden.
