Professional Garden Maintenance Cornwall
Expert horticultural care from one of Cornwall's most qualified gardeners
Juniper Gardens provides professional garden maintenance across Cornwall — thoughtful, horticulturally informed care for private gardens, holiday homes, and commercial properties.
Led by Jodi Dickinson MHort (RHS), head gardener at the Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden in St Ives, the work is grounded in eighteen years of practical experience, formal training to Master of Horticulture level, and a long-term approach to plant health and garden character.
Garden maintenance services in Cornwall
Juniper Gardens provides professional garden maintenance across mid and west Cornwall, shaped to the needs, character, and pace of each individual garden.
Core work includes hedge cutting, lawn care, and the careful pruning of shrubs, climbers, and trees, timed to suit growth and flowering cycles. Seasonal border work, including weeding and editing. Soil improvement through mulching and organic matter. And ongoing observation — identifying pest, disease, or stress issues early.
Pruning, plant composition, and the ongoing curation of the garden are approached with care and judgement. Each decision is made in response to the plant, its setting, and the wider structure of the garden — shaping growth, refining balance, and allowing the space to develop with clarity over time.
Beyond the essentials, Juniper Gardens offers expert advice and practical management for soil health, fruit tree pruning, ecological and wildlife gardening, and adapting gardens to the changing conditions Cornwall increasingly faces. All work is carried out with battery equipment where appropriate, with chemical inputs kept to an absolute minimum, and with care for the long-term ecological health of each garden.
