Autumn is the Perfect Time to Plan!

Kristen Lackajis • October 31, 2024

The ideal season to start thinking ahead...

The nights are drawing in and the temperature is dropping, as are the leaves from the trees – there’s no doubt that autumn has well and truly set in. As we start to store away garden furniture and retire the lawnmower, it's tempting to hibernate indoors until spring, but now is actually the perfect time to start planning your garden makeover.


With summer still fresh in your mind, you’re able to recall things that you wanted to change – whether it’s building a barbecue area, creating a covered patio for socialising, or taking down certain trees that block the sun.


In autumn, as your foliage sheds and plants recede, your garden is stripped back and reduced to its ‘bare bones’ revealing areas you may have previously dismissed. It’s easier to visualise what you want, see the space available, and build your vision from the ground up!


Don’t forget that planning a garden revamp takes time, effort and money. Finding a good garden designer to discuss your ideas with is your first port of call. Then there’s the time needed for the designer to research and find the best quality materials to ensure that your outdoor space is perfectly aligned to your vision.


Planning now also gives you something to look forward to! Much like booking a holiday in the winter gets us daydreaming about the sunshine and sea air, starting your garden design journey in autumn will really get you in the mood for spring when you can finally enjoy your dream becoming reality!
