Gardening is rewarding and creative and should be enjoyed, so finding the right information effortlessly and having the advice you need is important. It’s just knowing what to do can empower everyone to plan and create a beautiful garden of their own to enjoy” says Bromhall

"A common mistake people make is buying a lovely plant they’ve seen in the Garden Centre not realising it’s not the right plants for their garden soil & conditions, or if it does, how to prune or look after them so they look their best . "I am not a garden expert, so after working as a cameraman on the David Attenborough's “Private Life of Plants”  I decided  six years ago to produce a visually strong and informative plant database that anyone can use. Over the years we’ve listened to what people want and continued to add more plants to keep up to date with new varieties as well as climate changes and produced a plant reference tool that people want.  Finding information in books and the thousands of web sites is fine though can be time consuming and we know that thousands want a quick informative solution with access wherever whenever they want, without additional costs or unwanted emails

A garden is a growing investment Complete Gardens offers personalised plant care advice to gardeners of all abilities, by easy access to our versatile interactive plant selector software and finding the information they require to make their garden flourish. As well as adding to their enjoyment, a nice garden can also add value to their property and with the software advising which plant will look good at the time of selling a property this tool could be a very wise investment.

Complete Gardeners is already being used by thousands of garden enthusiasts of all levels of experience. We’re invited to leading Garden Design Colleges and Clubs to demonstrate the softwares ease & speed of use & wealth of information which the tutors find so valuable.

Six years in the making, our garden experts with mud under their fingernails were led by Award winning author Paul Williams who generously provided the vast wealth of  plant knowledge in layman's terms. Each plant is accompanied with high quality photographs to help identification and seasonal changes plus illustrated pruning advice
