WHAT MY CLIENTS SAY
Clare walked in to our moonscape backyard full of rocks, builders rubble and overland water flow. After sitting with us and listening to our wants and requirements she has come up with a design which incorporated all our requirements and provided functionality and privacy in our small city block. It is still a work in progress but the bones of the design have already made striking changes to the yard and we can’t wait to see the rest of the area take shape! We highly recommend Clare!

We had a great experience with Clare recently on our backyard at Red Hill. The plant selection was exactly what we wanted and has turned out terrific. Clare was happy to work with our other contractors onsite with the design to achieve a positive result, highly recommend.

After much deliberation, I settled on Clare James to design our front garden. I had admired her previous work and her design for our garden did not disappoint. The design took full advantage of the site and the plants chosen both look amazing and are well suited to the exposed hillside position. What was previously an unused area has been transformed into a space which we now enjoy every day. Thank you Clare. We absolutely love it!
– CELIA FARRELL
It was a pleasure to work with Clare on our garden design. Being novice gardeners, we were thrilled with Clare’s understanding of our needs and her broad knowledge of suitable plants for our garden. The planting guides she provided were very detailed and have provided us with stunning results. Our garden overhaul is an ongoing project, and Clare is very flexible with providing us with additional advice as we progress at our own pace.
– SUE RASMUSSEN
We recently had our house built in Taringa, and the yards were a total nightmare. We had no clue what to do, so we decided to get a professional in to give us a hand. Clare was amazing; she had a very clear idea of transforming our garden from an overgrown mess into a beautiful (low maintenance) work of art. It ties in with the surrounding bushland and blocks out the neighbours. She even helped source the plants and had them delivered. Great service!
– MAT JAMES
It is now about six months since Clare designed our garden, and organised delivery and the planting of the plants. The result is fantastic. Clare achieved exactly what we were after at a very reasonable cost. We would happily recommend her.
– FIONA AND MAX SPRY
We engaged Clare for an on-site consultation to discuss some ideas for improving the landscaping around our pool and our gardens in general. Clare was professional, listened to our needs, and provided some fantastic ideas and practical advice. Highly recommended!!!
– JT
Clare brings a wealth of experience and knowledge to her job and is passionate about garden design and horticulture. I would recommend her for projects big and small. She is very friendly and listens to client needs.
– KELLY SOUTHEE
Clare redesigned our garden nearly 2 years ago. We are so pleased with it. It’s so much easier to manage, everything is thriving and it is definitely very pretty!
– DENYSE DARBYSHIRE
Clare was responsive, knowledgeable, and creative. She met our brief of a child and dog friendly garden; keeping lots of grass to play on while still creating a lush sanctuary that will provide privacy from the neighbours. The more architectural front garden complements our new build perfectly and is a job to come home to. And it was all in budget too.
– EMILY FARRELL
Clare was wonderful to work with. From the initial consultation, through to project completion, she showed profesionalism and care for the quality of the finished project. Clare listened to our ideas and has designed a garden that uniquely reflects these. We love the design and seeing how the garden changes and looks even more amazing over time. We highly recommend working with Clare.
– HAYLEE CAU
Not being gardeners, my husband and I found Clare a wonderful listener and extremely knowledgeable in designing a basic, low maintenance plan on paper for us which included numerous snippets of valuable info to guide us along the right path. We are now looking forward to creating our new garden rather than looking at it in despair! Clare is a garden angel! ☀️
– ROBYN & PETER, DOOLANDELLA
I would strongly recommend contacting Clare. Her knowledge is amazing, she is lovely to work with and responsive to owners’ thoughts and requirements. Her plans for a garden are detailed, innovative and well matched to the environment. Our lives feel enriched by the pleasure of being surrounded by a lovely garden. Thank you Clare for helping us to make this transformation happen!
