East midlands garden design firm Lush Landscape & Garden Design have launched a brand new service, providing home owners with bespoke garden design plans at credit-crunch friendly prices.

"With the housing market uncertain and interest rates low, many homeowners are doing up, rather than selling up,"  explains Lush Landscape & Garden Design managing director Anna Barker. "As a result we've seen a large upturn in demand for garden plans this year."

"For this autumn/winter we decided to make local people a special offer they can't refuse. Our new fixed-price plans service allows customers to secure garden design and planting plans, designed specifically for their gardens, from as little as £200."

Once plans are created, home owners can build their gardens at their own pace and budget. With traditional garden design and build projects costing as much as a new kitchen or conservatory, the potential is there to save thousands of pounds.

"We've designed plan-only gardens for properties in Moira, Etwall, Duffield, Hilton and Packington so far this year, and we hope this offer will satisfy the increased demand," said Anna.

The fixed-price plans offer is running until the end of January 2012. Further details can be found on the Lush Landscape & Garden Design web site.
