Award-winning Garden Design Services
Award-winning garden design in London, Bristol and beyond. Rocket Garden Design is a landscape and planting design initiative that prioritises lifestyle and wellbeing.
From urban landscaping and wildlife-friendly courtyard gardens, to larger rural outdoor spaces - Rocket creates bespoke and thoughtful design with purpose.
As well as specialising in private gardens, Rocket works with architects and developers to create exemplary outdoor spaces. For those who have a smaller budget or don’t require a full redesign, Rocket’s garden design consultancy service advises you on garden ideas for your space and how best to bring them to life.

Rocket is on a mission to help people introduce plants into their lives and realise the benefits to their mental and physical wellbeing, while supporting biodiversity.
Our wellbeing workshops and talks are relaxed, informative and interactive, encouraging everyone to get their hands dirty and have a go!
They make for an ideal in-person or virtual team building activity. Bespoke in-person workshops on a theme of your choice are also available on request.
About Garden Designer, Eliza Nicholas
Eliza is an award-winning garden designer, who lives and works between Bristol and London.
While working in corporate central London, Eliza quickly realised that urban dwellers had limited engagement with nature and green spaces.
After setting up a popular gardening blog, contributing to lifestyle magazines such as Country Living, and studying at the British Academy of Garden Design, Rocket was born - a garden design initiative prioritising lifestyle and wellbeing.
Rocket Garden Design has now transformed gardens for hundreds of clients, and works with architects and developers on landscaping plans that maximise biodiversity. The landscape design services have expanded to cover Bristol, London and beyond. We also offer in-person and virtual wellbeing workshops, as well as garden maintenance services in and around Bristol.

“Eliza helped us with a planting scheme and design for our garden in Brislington. She was brilliant to work with, listening to all my random and disjointed ideas, and translating them into a beautiful, well thought out scheme which I am so happy with. Eliza is really knowledgeable and an absolute pleasure to work with - I would highly recommend reaching out if you need help with your garden in Bristol!”

“I would absolutely recommend. I had a very rough concept of how I wanted my garden to look, but Rocket Garden Design expanded those ideas, inspiring new features which resulted in a great outcome. This has helped to get the best out of my garden, from the wide range of plants to the layout of each aspect of the garden.”

“Eliza helped me make the most of the space in a way that is totally manageable for someone who’s not very green fingered!”
-
Rocket Garden Design helped me with my little garden in Bedminster, Bristol and totally transformed it! It's my first home and only a small garden but I didn't have a clue where to start. Eliza helped me make the most of the space in a way that is totally manageable for someone who's not very green fingered! She was also super knowledgeable about exactly what would work for a shady back garden and her advice and tips for how to look after it long into the future really emphasised her passion and professionalism. I wouldn't normally make such an effort to leave a review for this kind of thing but I was honestly so blown away by the whole experience from start to finish and I'd thoroughly recommend Rocket to anyone looking to make their garden work better for them - even if you cant quite envision what that means to you just yet! Thank you so much Rocket Garden Design!

“A valuable and unique service - our neighbours will be looking over in envy!”
-
Eliza did some brilliant work to help me design two balconies in my Zürich City Center apartment. The designs were great, as were the plant and furniture recommendations. She took care of everything - a really valuable and unique service. Our neighbours will be looking over in envy! Could not recommend more, for both small space and larger garden design.

“Expert help at a genuinely affordable price.”
-
The Online Garden Consultancy is brilliant for anyone looking for expert help to make the most of their outdoor space - at a genuinely affordable price. Eliza from Rocket Garden Design understood exactly what I was looking for and pulled together a detailed proposal for my balcony, which included hand drawn diagrams and pictures as well as links to where I could source materials. The design is chic, personal, practical and includes so many creative ideas - I'm so pleased with it.
