Victoria’s gardens often need smart planting that works hard in compact spaces and busy streets. Whether you’re near Victoria station or along Victoria Street, we design planting schemes that bring structure, colour and privacy without constant upkeep. Expect thoughtful border planting, seasonal interest from bulbs and perennials, and finishes that look crisp from day one. We can also refresh tired beds with new shrubs, trees and a clean mulch layer.
Our local experience across the Victoria area covers mansion blocks, Georgian townhouses and modern apartments with terraces. We plan for shade cast by taller buildings, wind funnelling between streets, and the need for planting that looks good from above. In Pimlico and Belgravia, we regularly work with formal layouts that suit period architecture, while modern developments often benefit from softer, layered planting. Every scheme is sized to your space and your maintenance preferences.
We start with a site visit to measure, check light levels and discuss style, colour and budget. Next comes planting design, plant supply and a clear schedule for installation, including soil improvement and mulching. We work tidily, protect communal areas, and set plants up for strong establishment with correct spacing and watering guidance. Homeowners choose us for reliable communication, premium materials and consistent aftercare advice.
Garden planting in City of Westminster often means working in enclosed courtyards, raised planters and communal entrances with strict access times. In SW1, parking and deliveries can be challenging, so we plan plant drops and waste removal to minimise disruption. We also factor in shade, reflected heat from paving, and wind exposure around taller buildings near Westminster and St James’s. The result is planting that performs well, not just on installation day.

Costs vary with bed size, access, and the type of plants selected. As a guide, border planting refreshes often start from £600–£1,500 for smaller beds, while fuller redesigns with soil improvement, mulching and a wider plant palette are commonly £1,500–£4,000+. Tree planting typically adds £250–£1,500 per tree depending on size and specification. We provide a detailed, itemised estimate after a site visit.
Most planting installations take 1 day for a small courtyard bed or a few planters, and 2–4 days for larger borders with soil improvement and mulching. If you’re adding multiple trees, reshaping beds, or working through restricted access in mansion blocks, the schedule can extend. Timescales also depend on plant availability and whether we’re planting in peak seasons. We confirm a realistic programme before ordering plants.
Most garden planting, border planting and mulching doesn’t require planning permission. However, there can be rules around protected trees, conservation areas, and works in communal gardens managed by freeholders or managing agents. If tree planting is close to boundaries or you’re altering levels, we’ll flag any potential issues early. We can also help you check relevant City of Westminster guidance and obtain approvals where needed.
Yes. Fine Landscaping provides a 10-year warranty on workmanship for installed elements, and we stand by our planting installation standards (correct preparation, spacing and staking). Living plants are subject to seasonal conditions and watering, so plant guarantees depend on supplier terms and correct aftercare. We’ll give you clear care instructions and can recommend maintenance visits to improve establishment. Any concerns after installation are handled promptly and transparently.
We offer everything from formal evergreen structure to softer, naturalistic mixes. Popular options in the garden planting Victoria area include layered shrub planting for privacy, perennials for long flowering, spring bulbs for early colour, and specimen trees for height and screening. We also supply composts, soil conditioners and mulch finishes (bark, composted mulch) to improve performance and reduce weeds. We’ll recommend plant choices based on light, wind exposure and how much maintenance you want.
