Whether you’re refreshing a courtyard near Paddington Station or softening a balcony outlook by Paddington Basin, our planting team creates schemes that look good in every season. We combine planting design with reliable plant supply, so you get the right varieties in the right places. Expect carefully set-out border planting, tidy edges and a clean, mulched finish. We can also integrate perennials and bulbs for ongoing colour without constant replanting.
The garden planting paddington area often means compact spaces, shared courtyards and roof terraces, alongside larger plots by Hyde Park. We regularly work with stucco townhouses, mansion flats and modern apartments where light levels, wind exposure and access routes vary dramatically. Our planting plans account for shaded north-facing corners, hot south-facing patios and containers that need drought-tolerant choices. Where needed, we specify plants that cope well with urban conditions and intermittent maintenance.
We start with a site visit to assess aspect, soil condition and irrigation options, then produce a clear planting layout and plant list. Once approved, we source quality stock, schedule delivery, and install with correct spacing, staking and mulching to support establishment. You’ll receive practical aftercare guidance and optional maintenance to keep everything thriving. Homeowners choose us for consistent workmanship, tidy working practices and dependable communication from start to finish.
Garden planting in City of Westminster often involves tight access, resident parking controls and timed deliveries, especially around W2. We plan logistics to minimise disruption and keep communal areas clean. Many properties near Little Venice and Marylebone have courtyards with limited soil depth, so we improve structure with organic matter and specify plants suited to containers or raised beds. We also consider wind tunnelling between buildings and choose resilient, well-anchored planting.

Costs vary with bed size, plant density and whether you need full planting design and supply. As a guide, border planting for small courtyards often starts around £600–£1,500 including plants and mulch. Larger schemes for townhouse gardens can range £2,000–£6,000+, especially with tree planting, soil improvement and irrigation tweaks. We provide an itemised quote after a site visit in W2.
Most small planting jobs take 1 day, including soil preparation, planting and mulching. Medium gardens typically need 2–3 days, while larger layouts with tree planting, multiple borders and access constraints may take a week. Timescales depend on plant availability, delivery windows, weather, and whether we’re improving soil or removing old planting first. We’ll confirm a schedule once the design and plant list are agreed.
Most garden planting, border planting and mulching are permitted and don’t need planning permission. However, some sites have restrictions: listed buildings, conservation areas, and works affecting protected trees can require consent. If tree planting is close to boundaries or existing mature trees, we’ll advise on best practice and check whether any City of Westminster rules apply. We can also help you gather the right information before work begins.
We back our workmanship with a 10-year warranty on installation standards, covering issues such as poor planting practice, incorrect staking, or inadequate mulching where this causes failure. Living plants are affected by weather, watering and site conditions, so plant replacement is usually handled case-by-case, especially after extreme heat or frost. We provide aftercare guidance and can offer maintenance visits to maximise establishment and long-term performance.
We can create modern architectural schemes, softer cottage-style borders, or low-maintenance evergreen structure with seasonal highlights. Popular options include layered shrub planting, perennials for long flowering, spring bulbs for early colour, and small trees for screening or focal points. We’ll select plants based on light levels, soil, wind exposure and your preferred palette, then finish with an appropriate mulch to improve moisture retention and reduce weeds.
