Planting Schemes

How the magic begins

Planting schemes in Cheshire

We’ve all seen those wonderful planting schemes that seem to flourish all through the year with an inspiring variety of forms, textures and colours working together in perfect harmony.

It’s important to remember that those schemes didn’t appear by happy accident. They’re so beautiful now because they began with expert planning.

Bring your garden to life

We’ll help you answer the key questions to unlock the full planting potential of your outdoor space:

The conditions
What soil do you have? How does the sun pass over your space and how exposed is it to the weather?

The character of the space
What’s the style and location of your property? Does it have an existing planting style? How many viewing points do you want to create? What are the surrounding buildings and structures like? What eventual size and height of shrubs and trees can the space accommodate?

Your preferences
Colour schemes and types of planting –what are your likes and dislikes? What level of maintenance are you happy to take care of?

Bringing the plan together

Once we’ve answered all the big questions, we can bring together all the elements that will transform your space:

Trees

Hedging and screen. Evergreens or deciduous. Fruit trees and orchards. Instant maturity from large trees brought in using specialist lifting equipment. We can provide all these from the stocks at our Alderley Edge centre. We can also safely re-locate existing trees and large shrubs if needed.

Shrubs and plants

Again we supply direct from our own stocks. Choose from contemporary batch planting, cottage garden or woodland styles, special bulb schemes, sensory planting, herb gardens and edibles, alpine and rockery installations. And of course we can always mix your planting scheme to achieve all-year-round colour and interest.

Container gardening

From a few well-placed containers around a seating area to a garden made up exclusively of container planting. We’ll be pleased to help you create your container scheme including a fully automated watering system if needed.

"Jacques has provided our garden maintenance for over 10 years and has also undertaken ‘one off’ tasks such as replacement fencing. The quality of the work meets our exacting standards, and moreover the team are always courteous, willing and helpful – often going the extra mile to deal with non-standard occasional requirements or preferences. We have no hesitation in recommending them"

Clive Elliott

"We are more than happy with the installation of our artificial grass. From price,design through to installation all the team involved were brilliant,we will definitely be working with easigrass in the future."

Craig Jones

Site Manager, Leighton Academy

“I have worked with Jon Jacques Landscapes across two different Primary Schools. Their work has always been of the highest standard, work that is delivered efficiently and at an affordable price. Jon Jacques have always worked closely with the needs of the school in creating the best school image and learning environment possible. I can thoroughly recommend their services.”

Andy Williams

“We called on Jacques over ten years ago when our gardener suddenly became sick and subsequently retired. It was meant to be temporary but they have done such a good job that here we are still together! We have a 2 acre plot, with complexity due to peaty soil and their gardeners have worked skilfully to create a beautiful mature garden in keeping with its natural habitat.”

Ian Watmore

“I am so very pleased with the finished results – all round. The work has been completed to an excellent standard, the guys were excellent, very friendly and very professional and the results are great. So looking forward to making use of the patio in summer. A special word about Mark, who was a brilliant project manager and kept an eye on everything throughout, many thanks to all involved.”

Lesley Fallon

“I can rely, absolutely, on the skill and commitment that Jacques Landscapes take in pruning each January my magnificent Wisteria Sinensis which they have done for the past 13 years.”

Carol Ray

"We are very happy with the service provided by the Easigrass team, we have high standards and are hard to please! The patio/path that was laid is excellent. We are really pleased with the grass."

Mrs Allinson

"Extremely happy with the service and love the grass; better than we had imagined. Have already recommended the product and service to a friend. The team were great, very hard working."
