Consultancy

Tiggy works as a Consultant advising on garden design ideas, planting schemes, pruning techniques and general garden maintenance. This can be just once, for a couple of hours or throughout the change of seasons, to review the progress of your garden. 

“Tiggy Lessner has worked with me on my garden for three years and in that time we have changed much and improved it very significantly. Her skills go beyond planting, shrubs and flowers, cutting back and pruning, to design and structure, sheds and tools, gates and trees. In fact everything in the garden. She has a great eye and great attention to detail”.

“Thank you for helping me to see the garden in a completely different light and give us encouragement in order to make the changes”.

Ian and Jill, Malmesbury

“We are so pleased with the ideas you have given us for revamping our garden. Everyone who came to visit during the summer remarked on the colour density in the different theme borders”.

Peter and Penny, Gloucestershire

“Thank you SO much for all your hard work and patience, not to mention expert advice and skill in helping us realise our dream garden”.

So much can be achieved in a 2 hour consultation with Tiggy. She will hear your ideas, inspire you and help you to see what can be achieved in your garden. Tiggy is careful to explain her ideas in detail, sometimes demonstrating this visually by laying ideas out using things to hand like hoses, chairs or canes. It is all about demystifying what can sometimes be the overwhelming task of designing the garden yourself. 

Consultations are charged at £80 per hour. Travel costs, outside of a 10 mile radius of GL6 9HN are charged at £80 per hour plus 45p per mile.

“Tiggy’s short consultation was very worthwhile at several levels: from identifying the overall feel of the garden linked to the style of the house inside and out, to detailed plant suggestions and helpful advice on ailing roses.”

Mrs. K. Back, Scar Hill, Gloucestershire.
