Rooted in a Passion for Plants

For gardens in Cobham, We Love Plants offers award-winning garden design, planting and aftercare for clients who want an outdoor space that feels beautifully considered, personal and made for the way they live. Whether the garden needs more structure, greater privacy, richer planting or a stronger connection to the home, each project is shaped around the property, the setting and the people who will enjoy it.

In Cobham, that often means creating gardens that balance generous planting with elegant outdoor living. We look carefully at the architecture of the house, the character of the garden and the way each space should feel, creating gardens that feel calm, natural and carefully resolved from the first ideas through to the final planting.

We also work nearby in Oxshott, Esher, Leatherhead, East Horsley and Walton-on-Thames.

Garden Design in Cobham

Gardens in Cobham are often set within established, leafy surroundings, with mature trees, hedges and generous plots contributing to the area’s green character. A considered garden design can work with these existing features to create a space that feels private, balanced and naturally connected to the property.

Light, views, levels, existing planting and the relationship between house and garden all help shape the design. In larger or more established gardens, this can mean strengthening the structure of the space, softening boundaries with layered planting or creating a clearer sense of flow between different areas.

Planting remains central throughout, bringing softness, seasonal interest and atmosphere while helping the finished garden feel settled within its surroundings.

We are really happy with the garden design Nic and the team put together for us - we're amazed by how quickly everything has grown since the garden was planted last year. We've been able to really enjoy the garden this year! The team at We Love Plants are also very helpful and quick to respond when we have questions.

Nic and his team have transformed our sad, suburban garden (front and back) into something really wonderful which fills us with joy every day. Designed using shrubs, perennials and bulbs for year-round interest, it’s relatively easy to look after with some help from the maintenance team - who are a pleasure to have around and are always contactable for help and advice.

FAQs

Do you visit my property in Cobham before designing?

Yes. A site visit allows us to understand the garden properly before any design work begins, from levels, boundaries and existing planting to how the space connects with the house. It also gives us time to understand what you want the garden to feel like and how it needs to work.

What type of garden design do you offer in Cobham?

We offer bespoke garden design in Cobham for private homes, established gardens and larger gardens. Many projects focus on creating a stronger relationship between the house and garden, with considered layouts, layered planting and spaces that feel elegant, natural and easy to enjoy.

Do you offer full garden design and build in Cobham, or design only?

We can support the full journey, from initial garden design and planting plans through to the build stage with trusted contractors. We Love Plants can also provide planting and aftercare, helping the garden establish well and continue developing with the right horticultural support.

How long does a garden design project in Cobham usually take?

Timescales vary depending on the size and complexity of the garden. The design phase typically takes several months, followed by build and planting schedules where required. Clear timelines are discussed at the start of each project, so clients understand what to expect at each stage.

Do you provide aftercare and maintenance support in Cobham?

Yes. We Love Plants provides aftercare and maintenance support to help gardens continue to thrive after planting. This can include seasonal care, pruning, plant health advice and ongoing horticultural guidance, helping the garden mature with the same care behind the original design.
