Gardener in Greenwich
Greenwich gardens are often walled, enclosed and smaller than they look from the street, and they suit careful regular attention.
Much of central Greenwich is Georgian and early Victorian, a good deal of it in a conservation area, and the gardens reflect that: enclosed, often walled, frequently with a raised or terraced level, and rarely large.
An enclosed walled garden has its own climate. It holds heat, it shelters plants that would struggle in the open, and it can also hold damp and still air in a corner that never quite dries out. The good news is that a small walled garden looked after properly can be the most rewarding kind there is. The catch is that everything in it is visible — there is nowhere for a neglected corner to hide.
Walls and climbers
Where there are walls there are usually climbers, and climbers are the thing most likely to have got away. Bringing an overgrown climber back under control without killing it is a job for the right time of year rather than the day you notice it.
Small lawns
Where there is grass it is often a small panel surrounded by planting, which means it is nearly all edge. Cut the edge properly and a lawn that size looks immaculate.

Questions about this service
Do you work in the conservation area?
Yes. Nothing we do routinely needs consent, but if a job involves a tree it is worth checking before rather than after.
Can you take on an overgrown climber?
Yes, though the right time of year matters. We will tell you whether it is a now job or an autumn job.
