A local brief makes a difference
Gardeners in Hinckley.
When handing a Hinckley garden over to a new provider, a short record of its established planting can be more useful than a long instruction to keep it tidy. Identify the plants and features you want preserved, including those with seasonal interest.
Free to request. Providers price the work, access and waste removal; you choose whether to book.
Include your neighbourhood
Include the neighbourhood and full postcode when you message us about your Hinckley garden. Mention any access arrangements that could affect the visit.
Create a simple garden reference
Take numbered photographs or mark a rough plan showing important plants. Add names only where you know them and note anything you are unsure about. Explain previous care and changes you have noticed without inventing a diagnosis. Ask the provider to review uncertain plants before deciding on pruning or removal.
Hollycroft Park uses a mapped tree trail
Hinckley and Bosworth Borough Council provides a Hollycroft Park tree-trail booklet with descriptions and a map locating the featured trees. For a private garden, the useful idea is the connection between a plant’s identity and its position. A small home reference can help avoid confusion when discussing maintenance with someone new.

Turn the reference into an agreed first visit
Ask which recorded plants need attention now and which are being left for another time. Distinguish routine border care from tree work or major alterations. Include cuttings removal and identify access near delicate planting. Keep optional replacements separate so the first maintenance visit preserves the garden you intended to hand over.
Compare Hinckley providers against the same brief
Send the postcode, photographs or simple plan and your priorities through WhatsApp. Gardeners set prices and confirm suitable dates after reviewing the request. Compare the same retained planting and immediate tasks. Update the reference when you agree a significant change so later visits use the current layout.
