Questions about planting & mulch

Can you help choose lower-maintenance plants?

Brian can discuss practical options based on light, exposure, available space and how much ongoing care you want to provide.

Do I need to buy the plants first?

Not necessarily. Plant selection, supply responsibility and budget should be agreed before the job so substitutions are not made without approval.

How deep should garden mulch be?

The suitable depth depends on the mulch and bed. It should suppress weeds without being piled against trunks, stems or building edges.
