“I have known Jane Follis for some eight years now and have great respect for her ability and professionalism. My wife and I first came in contact with Jane at a time when we had purchased some extra land to extend our garden… We talked to a number of garden designers but ultimately chose Jane because of her very professional approach and her interpretation of what we had in mind together with really good ideas that she put forward. The drawings for the new garden and the planting plans were first class and were translated into reality to our entire satisfaction. As a Governor of a large local school in Aylesbury I was charged with the responsibility of organising a major project to create a very large courtyard garden. I was lucky enough to persuade Jane Follis to play a major role in that venture and she not only created the designs and did much of the planting but worked closely with the children to incorporate their ideas as well. We had Whitbread’s and others as sponsors and this project was valued at some £80,000. The garden was a great success and transformed that area of the school. There is no doubt that without Jane’s positive input it would not have happened. I therefore have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Jane Follis to anyone wishing to develop a plan for a garden of any size and complexity.”

“I have known Jane for 18 months. We were in the process of extensively rebuilding our house and realised that there were landscaping problems that neither the architect, the builder nor ourselves were competent to solve. We, therefore, asked Jane to look at the design. I have the very highest regard for Jane’s work. She is absolutely professional, utterly reliable and well organised. She communicates clearly and straightforwardly with the client and is open and honest about what can be achieved within the constraints of a budget. Her management of the contractors is excellent. Jane combines a vast knowledge of and love for plants with an excellent eye for design, both in terms of hard landscaping and the planting itself. The process of creating our garden has been a pleasure, for Jane works wonderfully well with everyone, builders, architects, landscape contractors, clients. She listens carefully and seems to have a creative solution for every part of the design. She is patient, helping the client to decide rather than deciding for him! Her passion for plants is infectious. The design she has created for our garden is inspired… I am delighted to be able to recommend Jane to you in the very highest terms.”
