About Avalonian Gardens LTD

We are an established garden maintenance business primarily working on recurring domestic properties of medium to large size, with our largest site covering approximately 18 acres. Most work comes directly from our own client base via the Gardeners’ Guild, with occasional collaboration with garden designers leading to soft landscaping projects.

The work provides exposure to a wide range of horticultural techniques across well-stocked gardens. Where appropriate, surplus herbaceous divisions are available and staff are welcome to take these home.

We are a small, tight operation where growth is incremental and deliberate, with a strong focus on quality, reliability, and professional standards.
