There are now many Garden Designers who use and recommend our plants and are sympathetic to our style of gardening, a small selection is listed below.

National profile
Recently we have started to work very closely with Cleve West.
Cleve is widely acknowledged as one of the UK’s best garden designers, and has been awarded five RHS Gold Medals for his gardens at Chelsea and Hampton Court Flower Shows. His 2008 BUPA Garden also won the coveted BBC/RHS People’s Choice Award.

Chris Greene is a garden designer specializing in coastal and riverside gardens developed in a modern idiom with emphasis on the use of grasses and perennials.

Dan Pearson should need no introduction to most gardeners as his TV appearances and leading edge approach to garden design, frequently involving imaginative use of grasses, is known and admired by many.

Paul Hensey is a leading edge garden designer based in Lancashire who creates many amazing new gardens and landscapes with frequent and very effective use of grasses.

Amanda Patton has been awarded two RHS silver-gilt medals for her gardens at Chelsea and Hampton Court and a gold medal at NAGS. With a degree in textile design and subsequent background as a professional illustrator, her designs are infused with a love of colour, touch and texture; as such, grasses play a vital role in all the gardens she creates. She is a Registered Member of the Society of Garden Designers and has designed around 100 gardens for clients in her home county of Dorset and around the UK.

Local Designers
Prize winning local Garden Designer Jane Stewart is talented and imaginative with both an artistic and practical approach to design. Jane draws on her knowledge of botany, horticulture and environmental science to find solutions that marry beauty, good design and a respect for the natural environment. Wild spaces are often employed for inspiration, and here grasses play an essential role.

Angela Mann has worked at Knoll Gardens for over 5 years. She is also a Qualified Garden Designer. Her Foundation Degree in Professional Garden Design was obtained locally at the Arts
Institute Bournemouth and Kingston Maurward. Angela offers a professional, friendly and individual approach to all aspects of the garden design process from consultation and advice to the
preparation of detailed scale drawings, illustrations, and planting plans, as well as supply and planting.

If you contact any of these designers we would appreciate you mentioning where
you found their name.
