CB Musings - Whats happening in market ??

We are all breathing a sigh of relief here,  having made it through another wet and ugly winter without too much hail or obliterating storms. Soon it will all be a distant memory and everyone will be complaining about how dry things are.  Not to worry though, Donald T has assured us it has nothing to do with so called 'global warming', so just a blip ...... yeah right!

Anyway on a happier note - things are looking amazing here, flowers everywhere and the quality of the stock coming in (and going out just as quick!) is phenomenal - a real credit to our growers. Check out the pics at the end for a few tasters of whats on offer.

As i mentioned in an earlier blog, we are keen to highlight some of our spectacular Landscaping industry clients as a way to show our appreciation to them. It is also a great way for them to promote their skills and the wonderful work they are producing. So, without further adue, i would like to introduce the first in our series, a very clever lady - Claire Talbot,  who has developed an extremely successful business called Sculpt Gardens. 

With more than 15 years experience, the all female team are one of the only landscaping businesses who are actively involved in working with clients from the initial concept & design stage, working alongside contractors to install their garden designs & then planting and caring for the beautiful gardens they create over the coming years.

"We love to see our designs come to fruition over time"

With her early career spent in graphic design, senior landscape designer Naomi Gray's unique presentation of planting & concept plans ensures clients can easily understand their final landscape design. Sculpt's landscape designs have photos of plants, an easy to follow key & comprehensive construction notes.

Founder Claire Talbot comments "By continuing to care for & maintain our client's gardens over time not only do we get to see our creative ideas literally blossom & grow, but we also have an invested interest in continuing to perfect our garden designs & the relationships with our clients."

Award winning and qualified landscape designers & gardeners, the team from Sculpt Gardens live & work on Auckland's North Shore, so are experts on planting in this area - what thrives & survives & specific planting methods for clay soils to ensure plants do well once in the ground. 

A like-minded team of designers & gardeners who are garden, design & plant enthusiasts. The Sculpt Gardens team engage in interesting, varied & enjoyable work, which they are both good at & passionate about.
