About Shelley

I offer a full landscape and garden design service within the wider Wellington Area.

I have a B.Sc in Botany from Victoria University and a National Certificate in Landscape Design. This academic grounding has been enhanced by years as both an avid gardener and my 10 years working within the industry. As a consequence, I have gained an extensive knowledge of plant species, both exotic and native, which can grow in Wellington’s challenging environment.

Strengths

To achieve a suitable and enjoyable garden design, it is important to facilitate a dialogue between myself and my client. Listening to my client’s ideas and desires is critically important and I believe I achieve this in a warm and friendly manner.

I have designed a variety of properties including suburban gardens, beach gardens, small inner city spaces; and the integration of house additions into existing properties has been an important source of work for me.

Flexible work hours allow me to arrange visits to suit my client’s lifestyle.
