About
Based in the Adelaide Hills, Leaf Bloom Seed is a garden design business with a focus on personalised service and plant-driven designs.
With the aim of nature conservation, the designs have an emphasis on sustainability, using local materials, minimal-waste, and planting for biodiversity. Gardens can play an integral role for wildlife and every design is considered, not just for human enjoyment but also for a positive impact on the planet.
All designs aim to complement and enhance the outdoor space. Whether a tiny courtyard or a large estate, the design style is based on a strong sense of place, finding each garden's unique personality and strengths. Plants are selected based on the principle 'Right Plant, Right Place'. Every site's varying conditions are very well considered.
About me
I have always had an interest in the natural world and a love of gardens. After realising I could turn this passion into a career, I completed a Certificate 3 in Horticulture and continued the Landscape Design Diploma in 2013 at Urrbrae TAFE.Since then I have spent many years maintaining gardens and gaining a broad range of horticultural expertise and plant knowledge. I find this experience invaluable when it comes to designing beautiful, but practical outdoor spaces. My favourite style of garden is full of flowers, interest and seasonality. It brings me joy to see wildlife thriving in gardens I've created and how much diversity they encourage. I also love veggie gardening and being able to grow fresh produce, (with help from my young boys), which gives me such pleasure.
