Description

*** I AM FULLY BOOKED FOR THE SUMMER 2025 SO CANNOT TAKE ON ANY NEW CLIENTS***
Leaf It To Me is all about the plants and the people, I believe that it is important to understand a clients perspective and needs so I always come and see the garden and chat to you before undertaking any work, this also allows me to give an accurate estimate and I do not charge for that initial visit .

Anything that grows is my speciality - I offer advice about planting a new garden or maintaining and developing your current space. I can advise on planting for different areas, including shrubberies, herbaceous borders, wet or shaded areas, fruit and vegetable patches, container planting, and rockeries. I am particularly experienced in fruit tree care. I will come to gardens in any part of Edinburgh for the above services.

I also provide regular maintenance services; mowing, weeding, hedge cutting, pruning small trees, shrubs. This can be once or twice a month and I offer this in the following areas
Edinburgh postcodes EH 1-10
EH11 as far as Stenhouse
EH12 to Corstorphine
EH14 to Slateford
all of EH15.
I charge £35 per hour. I porovide all my own tools and have public liability insurance in the event of any mishaps.

I am a proud member of the LGBTQI+ community. I have significant experience working with vulnerable adults ensuring their safety, dignity and inclusion. I currently do this in Muirhouse Community Garden, alongside my own gardening business. Several of my clients work alongside me in their gardens, I can do the tasks that they are physically unable to do or I can give them guidance on how and when to do certain garden tasks if they are not confident to undertake them. Often we learn from each other!

I do have to charge for green waste removal, £65 per small van load, unless you can do this using your green waste bin or local household recycling centre.
I do not provide landscaping services such as laying slabs, patios, stones, turf or decking. Lawn and pond care beyond the basics are not my areas of expertise either!

Thanks for reading and I look forwards to seeing you in your garden soon!

Leaf it to me arrived on time; worked for the agreed time, cleared up afterwards, is flexible and comes up with suggestions.

I have a lovely mature little apple tree that was rather neglected and sad looking. Leaf it to me (Sylva) came out and set to work on it and completely transformed it back to its splendid looking self. Will be definitely getting her back after fruit has ended to tidy it up. Can highly recommend her. Thank you Sylva.

Sylva has done an amazing job! I had a jungle, with more weeds than grass and now it’s a lovely garden for both myself and my dog to enjoy. I cannot recommend enough, a very professional and friendly service and Sylva took the time to listen to my requests. I plan to use Leaf it to me for all my garden needs in the future, please don’t hesitate to contact Sylva if you are looking for a knowledgeable, reliable, considerate and compassionate gardener.
