Planting Design
At Ivy and Whyte Garden Design, our planting design service enhances every garden we create, forming an essential part of our approach to Ashford garden design and projects across Kent. We design planting schemes that bring structure, colour and atmosphere to your outdoor space, ensuring each plant choice suits your soil, aspect and lifestyle.
Our designs focus on year-round interest, combining texture, movement and seasonal highlights for a garden that grows more beautiful over time. Whether your style is naturalistic, contemporary or something in between, our planting plans are thoughtfully composed to complement your overall garden design.



As specialists, we select plants that thrive in the right local conditions, creating sustainable, resilient borders that feel effortless to maintain. We’ll tailor your garden planting scheme to suit your needs. This may include moodboards and 3D visuals. We’ll work out how many plants you need, order them and even lay them out and plant them for you.
When you order your plants through us, you can be confident you’re getting great-quality plants at excellent value. We’ll take care of delivery, lay out all the plants on site and plant them all for you. If you’d like continued support, we also offer a full aftercare and maintenance service.
We’d love to create your planting design and help bring your garden to life. Whether you’re looking for soft, naturalistic borders or a more contemporary scheme, we design planting plans that enhance your space and thrive in your garden’s conditions. Our goal is to design planting that feels effortless, beautiful and perfectly suited to the way you live.
