Cultivating beautiful gardens and lasting relationships since 2011
What began as a single gardener with a van and a vision has grown into one of the most trusted garden care providers in the South East. Our founder, Marcus Webb, started Glistening Meadow after twenty years working in botanical gardens across Europe.
He noticed something troubling: most garden maintenance services treated every outdoor space identically. Cut the grass, trim the hedge, leave. There was no consideration for soil health, biodiversity, or the unique character of each garden.
That realisation sparked our founding principle: every garden deserves thoughtful, informed care that honours its individual ecosystem. Today, our team of twelve carries that philosophy into thousands of gardens each year.
These principles shape every decision we make, from plant selection to client relationships.
We use organic treatments wherever possible and design planting schemes that support local wildlife. Healthy gardens start with healthy soil.
Our horticulturists hold RHS qualifications and pursue continuous learning. We stay current with best practices and emerging research.
We listen before we act. Understanding your lifestyle, preferences, and goals allows us to create gardens that truly enhance your daily life.
We provide straightforward advice even when it means recommending less work. Trust matters more than transactions.
Our twelve-person team brings together specialists in lawn care, arboriculture, landscape design, and sustainable horticulture. Several team members have backgrounds in botanical research, bringing scientific rigour to practical garden care.
We don't hire based on experience alone. Every member of our crew shares an authentic enthusiasm for working outdoors and helping clients connect with nature. That passion shows in the small details — the extra care taken with a beloved rose bush, the patience to explain why certain approaches work better than others.
Training never stops here. Our team regularly attends RHS workshops, visits show gardens, and shares knowledge through weekly briefings. Staying curious keeps our work fresh and our clients' gardens thriving.
We arrive when we say we will. If unforeseen circumstances cause delay, you'll receive advance notice with a revised time.
Every quote itemises our services clearly. You'll never face unexpected charges or hidden fees after the work is complete.
All green waste is removed, paths are swept, and tools are never left behind. Your garden will look better than we found it.
We share advice freely. If you have questions about plant care between visits, reach out and we'll help.
