Testimonials
T&S, LONDON - 27/02/2020
.“Great workmanship all round. Very professional, knowledgeable and tidy. Karen interpreted our wishes wonderfully and we are very happy with our terrace garden. We very much enjoyed sitting outside last summer simply enjoying our beautiful, low maintenance, bee loving urban garden.”
MRS PEARSON, HERTS - 21/03/2020
"Karen’s thoughtful design brought beautiful colour and structure to my garden throughout the year. Using a mix of low-maintenance planting and some stunning features in pots and planters, she transformed plain-looking spaces into multiple areas of loveliness, bringing out the best features of each: a mini Mediterranean-style courtyard garden, a rose trellis seating area, a stunning herbaceous perennial bed and a shaded woodland section. Her creative approach and careful planning gave me a wonderful space in which, with the simplest of instructions, I could look effortlessly like a seasoned gardener. I would highly recommend her services."
RECTOR, THE ROSARY SHRINE - 20/03/2020
"Thanks to Karen Mak, the Rosary Shrine in London has a beautifully planted garden that has transformed the back of our church. It now brings year-long joy and delight to the neighbourhood, and to our pilgrims who come from near and far to marvel at its beauty. As the months proceed, I have enjoyed seeing the beautiful range of flowers and plants blooming, and Karen has planted everything with an expertise to overcome the challenges of the location. She is cheerful and pleasant to work with, accommodating, and always patient, and we look forward to many years of collaboration in keeping the Luminous Mysteries Rosary Garden as a destination for Londoners and visitors from further afield."
Mrs Merttens, Suffolk - 17/04/2020
"Karen designed, sourced and planted my garden for me and the end result is absolutely stunning. Karen works with quiet efficiency and when a problem arose she handled it calmly and professionally without any fuss. She has a great team of hard working helpers and they were a pleasure to have in the house. My garden is now a thing of great beauty and colour. She planted lots of bulbs and plants which are all coming out at different times which is wonderful. All in all it’s been a massive success. I cannot recommend Karen Mak highly enough."

I would not hesitate in recommending Karen. She has transformed my garden which was previously devoid of interest and colour. She was very professional and worked with me to understand my likes and dislikes both in terms of colour and the plants before producing her plans. A year and a half later, the garden is looking even more amazing than day one and demonstrates the care, knowledge and attention to detail Karen showed in coming up with the original design. Not only is Karen brilliant at her job but she is also a lovely, warm person. I am absolutely delighted with her work.
Mrs hamilton, London - 21/04/2020
"Karen is an incredibly knowledgable, skilled and talented gardener. She has worked with us for over four years and has transformed our challenging garden into more than we could have ever imagined. She listened carefully to our brief and then interpreted it into a garden that is both beautiful and manageable. She has sensitively worked with me to encourage my limited interest in gardening and we have spent many good moments discussing roses, peonies and other beautiful plants that have now become part of the fabric of our garden. Her work has impressed many of our neighbours, so much so that she now tends for theirs too. Karen, thank you."
Emma, London - 05/04/2020
"Karen has been tending to my garden for the last 3 years. Come rain or shine she always turns up with a smile on her face.
I am never disappointed with the plants she chooses for my window boxes or the bulbs that bloom in spring. Karen takes great pride in her work and the garden is always immaculate when she leaves."
