Over 4 weeks, I’ll share with you all the design & plant knowledge that I offer my landscape clients. Information, tips and tricks of the trade that I know ‘without thinking’ and is now so natural, I forget other people don’t know!
I completely understand that a custom landscape design is expensive and it stops you from being able to bring great design and plant choices into your own garden.
That's why the 'Boring Backyard to Glorious Garden' training is perfect for you.
With my experience of designing beautiful Kiwi gardens & working with some amazing landscape designers and your need to find an easy & cost effective way of having a beautifully designed outdoor space, we will work together to create an attractive, functional, low maintenance (if that's what you need) garden design for you.
This course is a starting point for you to be involved in the design of your own garden so you are able to then action the plan you have created.

A Bit About Claire
With a background in education and creative businesses, Claire brings a welcome balance of pragmatism and genuine creativity to garden design on Auckland’s North Shore. She holds a BSc Hons degree in Psychology and Management, Certificate in Home Garden Design as well as receiving the NZ Gardener Award for Top Garden Design Student in 2015. Claire co-authored the book Relax and Grow Rich with Mike Hutcheson. It’s about deciding what you want to be rich in, rather than how rich you want to be, and finding ways to live a successful, satisfying and sustaining life. For Claire, garden design provides all of these rewards. Her particular passion is combining different textures, leaf shapes and leaf sizes to create compositions clients love. Although the demand-driven growth of the business absorbs much of her time, Claire still likes to meet as many clients as possible. She believes strongly that everyone should have access to great garden design ideas so they can create an attractive outdoor space, regardless of their budget, which is why she created the "Design Your Own Garden" course to enable everyone to learn how to design a great garden. |

"I saved money and really enjoyed being part of the process. I learnt about what plants worked best with each other and suited my garden and how much time I was going to spend looking after them. I really felt like I was involved and I've created something myself. Such a good idea."
Rebecca, Millwater |

"I really liked how we were given a full breakdown of what everything cost. It makes it easier to understand how the final price was reached. Natalie, Campbells Bay |
