He is easy to garden alongside, interested and helpful, ready to tackle anything. I recommend him without reservation."

Simon has worked for me for 3 years. He has kept my garden looking superb & done some lovely design work in addition to maintenance. He loves gardens/gardening & it shows! Highly recommend.
Excellent display of knowledge and creative expertise. Great advice throughout, job was done promptly and mess kept to a minimum. Superb outcome!
Prompt and hard working at a reasonable price. Have been using him regularly and happy to recommend him although don't want him to get too busy. He is my gardener!
He engaged with you about the job and follows what you agree. Efficient and cheery.
Very happy to have chosen Simon and 'Something Green' from your website. He's punctual, thorough, professional, and always achieves the desired results in the allotted time. Have hired him for nearly a year now and both front and back gardens are consistently the best they have ever looked. Top man!
Simon has been tending my garden for over a year now and I fully endorse all the comments made by other reviewers. He is an excellent gardener - very knowledgeable, reliable and friendly. I particularly appreciated all the advice he gave me this summer when choosing shrubs for areas that needed re-planting.
Following an initial visit to discuss our requirements in May 2018, Simon took us to a garden center and helped us select the most appropriate plants for our near-empty garden following a kitchen extension. He then planted them out, showing good judgement and an eye for design, and he gave us comprehensive aftercare advice, which was very helpful. The results were transformational and we are very happy with our new jungle garden. It is still flourishing, despite a challenging summer drought, and we would not hesitate to recommend Simon.
