"I had a blank canvas and they worked closely with me to develop a beautiful concept design for our garden. The end package was very well constructed and a great resource for my garden journey. We get a lot of positive feedback on our garden, and I highly recommend Understorey for making the process enjoyable, informative and most importantly successful!"
Caitlin Platt, Corrimal
"We loved Kathryn visiting us today for advice on improvements to our garden. We've just moved into our new home - the garden is established but we needed some expert help pointing us in the right direction for environmentally sensitive & sustainable modifications. Kathryn was exactly what we needed - one of those amazing people who is both incredibly professional and super personable, providing considered horticultural perspectives, an aesthetic eye, and genuine interest in our ideas. We felt really encouraged moving forward and so glad to know she is there for follow-up. Highly recommend!"
Mike & Dom, Balgownie.
"Kat came to give us some ideas for greening up the common areas of our Wollongong Apartment block. She was absolutely wonderful! She took into consideration the feel of the gardens already in place, our ideas, and concerns of some of the other residents. Kat has great suggestions for native alternatives to non natives and included species endemic to the area in her plan. At the end of the consultation she drew us up a plan which seems perfectly fitting to the place. We would highly recommend Glitter and Leaves and can't wait to get planting!"
Tim Wand, Wollongong
"Kathryn came around well prepared and was quickly able to get a read on our off-beat style. Despite our half an acre of land that needs to be tamed she was enthusiastic and undaunted with very practical and imaginative suggestions. I can see us working with her for a very long time to come as our land transforms into a natural bush land and usable yard under her guidance.

"Kathryn is well educated in the science of plants and garden design yet retains a particularly practical approach. Her design is for a garden that is aesthetically pleasing, low maintenance and environmentally friendly. I love the use of so many native plants.
I highly recommend Glitter and Leaves.
