How much does online garden design cost and what is included?

When comparing garden design prices, check what each service actually delivers. Planning container placement on a terrace, a technical project and building a complete garden involve different work.

Vivero de Abril offers online garden or terrace design for €99 for one space up to 30 m², including one revision.

What the €99 design includes

• An indicative visual proposal for plants and areas of use.
• Plant selection based on your photos, measurements, conditions and preferences.
• Care guidance for the recommended plants.
• One round of changes to the same space, with your feedback gathered in one message.

The aim is to help you decide before buying. See a sample deliverable to understand the format.

What you budget separately

The design fee does not include plants, pots, furniture, materials, transport, planting, installation, building work, site visits or on-site measurements. It does not include technical construction plans.

Keep the planning budget separate from the implementation budget. Sharing your budget for plants and materials helps guide the proposal; those purchases are not included in the service fee.

When a €60 advice session is a better fit

If your layout already works and you need help with plant care, watering or plant choices, consider 60 minutes of online advice for €60. It includes a review of photos and questions beforehand, a video call and a written summary of priorities. It does not include a garden design.

What to prepare for the design

1. General photos and views of doors, routes and fixed features.
2. Perimeter measurements and dimensions of items you want to keep.
3. Your location, orientation and approximate hours of direct sun.
4. Your main use, available maintenance time and budget for purchases.

The initial proposal is prepared within 48–72 hours after we receive all required information and confirm the scope. The revision schedule is agreed separately. Use our preparation guide and free manuals.

Larger gardens or building work

For more than 30 m², several spaces or technical needs, ask before purchasing. Essential Design does not replace construction, irrigation or electrical projects or a technical site assessment.
