Our latest Wildlife Garden design, Bressingham Norfolk

The Sycamore Barn Wildlife Garden in Diss, Norfolk, designed by Ecospaces, Norfolk & Norwich Landscapers, is a haven for biodiversity and nature discovery.  At its heart lies a medium-sized wildlife pond with varying depths, a pebble beach for amphibians, and native plants to support aquatic life.

Surrounding the pond, a wildflower meadow serves as a biodiversity hotspot, complemented by eco-tone habitats that seamlessly connect different zones with shrubs and native plants.

The garden features diverse habitats, including rock piles, log piles, hibernacula, and dry stone wall mounds, offering shelter and nesting opportunities for insects, birds, and small mammals. Woodland and hedgerow areas are enhanced with lower canopy species and mulched to boost soil fertility.

​Mown pathways invite leisurely nature walks and wildlife observation, while a dedicated nature viewing den provides a tranquil space for reflection. This design fosters a thriving ecosystem, blending ecological balance with natural beauty.

Eco garden landscaping design

​An eco-garden is more than just a collection of plants; it's a balanced, self-sustaining system. Our eco-garden designs focus on creating a healthy environment by improving soil quality, conserving water, and avoiding chemical pesticides and fertilizers. We design spaces that are not only beautiful but also resilient and beneficial to the wider environment, reducing your garden's carbon footprint and maintenance needs.

Sustainable landscaping services

Sustainability is at the core of everything we do. Our sustainable landscaping services ensure that your garden is beautiful today and for years to come. We achieve this by:

• Sourcing materials locally and responsibly.
• Implementing water-wise irrigation and drainage solutions.
• Using organic methods to nurture soil and plant health.
• Selecting plants that are perfectly suited to the local climate.

Biodiversity planting design

​A diverse garden is a resilient garden. Our biodiversity planting designs use a rich palette of plants to create a multi-layered habitat. We select a variety of trees, shrubs, perennials, and annuals that offer food and shelter for a wide range of species throughout the year. This approach not only supports wildlife but also creates a dynamic and visually interesting garden that changes with the seasons.

Bee & butterfly & pollinator landscaping Norfolk

​Pollinators are essential for a healthy planet, and your garden can play a vital role in supporting them. We design landscapes specifically to attract bees, butterflies, hoverflies, and other beneficial insects. By choosing nectar-rich flowers that bloom from early spring to late autumn, we create a continuous food source, turning your garden into a bustling hub for these crucial creatures.

Drought tolerant planting design

​With changing climate patterns, creating a water-wise garden is more important than ever. Our drought-tolerant planting designs utilize plants that are naturally adapted to thrive with minimal water once established. We select beautiful, resilient species from around the world that can withstand dry Norfolk summers, reducing your watering duties and creating a garden that is both stunning and sustainable.

Wildlife Habitat creation Norfolk

Every thriving wildlife garden needs safe places for creatures to shelter, breed, and hibernate. We are experts in creating a variety of habitats, including log piles for insects and amphibians, dense shrubberies for nesting birds, and rockeries for reptiles. These features are carefully integrated into your garden design, providing essential homes for wildlife without compromising the aesthetic of your space.

Wildflower meadow installers Norfolk

​Imagine a corner of your garden transformed into a sea of colourful, swaying wildflowers. As professional wildflower meadow installers, we can make that vision a reality. We create both annual and perennial meadows that provide a critical source of food for pollinators and a breath taking display of natural beauty. Whether you have a small patch or a large field, a wildflower meadow is a powerful way to boost local biodiversity.

Wildlife pond builders Norfolk

A pond is one of the most effective ways to attract a diverse range of wildlife to your garden. As experienced wildlife pond builders, we design and construct naturalistic ponds that become home to dragonflies, frogs, newts, and birds. We ensure your pond has varying depths and shallow, sloping sides, making it safe and accessible water source for all creatures.

Sustainable drainage

​Effective water management is key to a sustainable garden. We design and implement sustainable drainage solutions (SuDS) like rain gardens, swales, and permeable paving. These systems help to manage rainwater runoff, prevent flooding, reduce water pollution, and recharge groundwater. This intelligent approach to drainage turns a potential problem into a resource for your garden.

Natural landscaping Norfolk

​Our natural landscaping philosophy is about working with the character of your site, not against it. We take inspiration from Norfolk's beautiful natural landscapes to create gardens that feel settled and authentic. This involves using native plants, locally sourced materials, and gentle contouring to create a space that feels like a natural extension of the surrounding environment.

Native woodland design Norfolk

​Bring the magic of a woodland into your garden. We design native woodland areas using species like oak, birch, and hazel, complemented by a rich understory of shade-loving plants and bulbs. A small woodland garden provides an invaluable habitat for birds and insects and creates a tranquil, shaded retreat for you to enjoy.

Native Hedgerow planting Norfolk

​Hedgerows are the lifeblood of the countryside, acting as vital corridors for wildlife. We design and plant ecological hedgerows using a mix of native species such as hawthorn, blackthorn, and holly. These living fences provide food, shelter, and nesting sites for birds, small mammals, and insects, while also serving as an attractive and effective garden boundary.

Edible landscaping Norfolk

​Why separate your vegetable patch from your flower beds? Our edible landscaping service, or "foodscaping," integrates fruit, vegetables, and herbs directly into your ornamental garden design. We artfully combine attractive edible plants with traditional ornamentals, creating a space that is both beautiful and productive. Enjoy the satisfaction of harvesting fresh, delicious produce right from your own beautiful garden.
