Seasonal Adjustments

No garden stays still. The difference between a garden that's merely maintained and one that keeps getting better is the willingness to change things.

What changes over time

Perennials outgrow their space and need dividing. Shrubs shade out planting that used to thrive. A tree matures and changes the light across half the garden. Gaps open where something failed. All of this is normal — and all of it needs a decision rather than neglect.

The work of adjustment

• Dividing and replanting perennials
• Moving plants that have outgrown their position
• Filling gaps as they appear
• Editing schemes that have become congested
• Adding seasonal interest where it's thinned

Designed to evolve

Our schemes are designed knowing they'll change. Adjustment isn't a correction of something that went wrong — it's the ongoing work of keeping a living design coherent as it matures. It's what separates a garden at year ten from a garden at year one.
