Ana did a wonderful job designing a beautiful garden that brings our family happiness everyday. She took the time and attention to get to know us, our tastes and gardening knowledge. The design also really does match the house. Even in the dull winter weather, our stunning blue wall (which Ana suggested) has brightened up our days. In the summer we enjoyed many days sitting and enjoying our plants, new decking and seating. Now in the spring, we are enjoying watching the trees blossom. Ana and her team were efficient, hard working and attentive to detail. We highly recommend Ana and her team.

Ana Sanchez Martin is a genius! She did a fantastic design for our small back garden when we lived in North London which we loved so much that when we moved to Harpenden we got her back in to redesign our larger garden. It was so awesome that we have been featured in Modern Gardens magazine and in Houzz articles! Would use Germinate Design again without hesitation and have recommended to many friends.

Our beautiful garden keeps bringing us joy, three years down the line. We love the flexibility of the space, all the different areas: the reading suntrap corner, the Dining Pavillion which is fantastic for entertaining (and according to our daughter for homework!), the generous terrace next to the house, the BBQ area, the reflective corner by the fountain

Egregious pricing - after many years a lot of the plants that were put in my garden had to be replaced. The landscaping looks great but looking back the cost was far too high.
