At PlantSource, we design landscapes that aren’t just beautiful — they’re achievable. Whether you’re starting with a blank canvas or reworking an existing space, we’ll help you make confident
decisions right from the start.

Our approach is practical and honest. We
consider how the garden will look, function, and be maintained over time — and because we also grow and supply plants, we often design using what’s available and suitable for your site. That means fewer delays, less guesswork, and a smoother path from concept to completion.

We’re based in Hamilton (design) and Thames (nursery), giving us great coverage across the Hamilton area,
Thames–Coromandel, Bay of Plenty, and wider North Island.

Why Choose PlantSource?

What to expect

Here’s how our typical design process works:

  1. Initial enquiry – We help you choose the right level of service
  2. Client questionnaire – A simple form to understand your site, vision, and preferences
  3. Consultation or site visit – Depending on your location and package, we’ll either visit your site or meet remotely
  4. Design development – We prepare your landscape layout and planting plan
  5. Review and revisions – You’ll have a chance to review and request any tweaks
  6. Final plan delivery – You receive a clear, practical plan ready for action
  7. Optional plant supply support – If it suits the project, we may also provide a quote to supply the plants specified in your plan
