Cherish every moment

From leisurely mornings sipping coffee to
evenings winding-down watching the sunset, a
Painted Fern garden design makes every moment special.
Welcome to the start of your dream garden project.

At Painted Fern, every garden tells a story, guided by our artistry, design expertise, and, most importantly, shaped by the people who will call it home. From small courtyards, town homes to large country gardens, we design bespoke, immersive and evocative spaces which seamlessly blend with your interior design and that you will never want to leave.
