“Having decided it was time to change my 1940’s, much neglected, garden into a beautiful, low maintenance garden that would give me joy and delight, I approached Claire Hawker and ‘Willow Garden Design’ to explore possibilities and costs. I knew I needed help from an expert to plan this transformation and to find plants that would suit my garden soil and challenging light conditions (I have a hot south-facing wall with border in front, but also a north-facing, dry, overgrown area with large trees overhanging). Claire Hawker (‘Willow Garden Design’) turned out to be the perfect choice - professional, value for money and a delight to work with. From beginning to end, the planning and completion process was easy and stress free. I felt included in every stage of the project and the end result reflects my garden style. I was constantly impressed by Claire and her team. Claire is easy to work with, replied to questions promptly. She is an excellent communicator. She was up-front about all the details, costs and when the work could be done. Claire and her team provided great plant choices and in-dept advice, as well as transparency and precision about costs. If the planning process was easy and stress-free, the planting phase was the same. The planting work was carried out with minimum disruption, intrusion or untidiness. I was impressed by Claire’s professionalism, the value for money, the calm and fairness that Claire showed from beginning to end. Thanks to Claire and her team, I have ended up with a beautiful garden that makes me smile every time I see it, and lifts my heart every time I am in it. I cannot recommend Claire and ‘Willow Garden Design’ highly enough. If you want an extraordinary, garden professional with encyclopaedic plant knowledge, flair, enthusiasm and creativity, then Claire and ‘Willow Garden Design’ is unequalled. Claire and her team in ‘Willow Garden Design’ simply are the best! Bernard McC. (Dublin, 2020)”
