Wildlife Garden Design Wiltshire
Transform your Wiltshire garden into a thriving wildlife haven with Charlotte's expert wildlife garden design services. Specializing in creating biodiversity-rich spaces that support local wildlife while providing you with a beautiful, sustainable outdoor sanctuary.

Creating Wildlife Havens in Wiltshire
Wiltshire's countryside is home to incredible wildlife, from red kites soaring over the downs to rare chalk downland butterflies. Charlotte's wildlife garden designs bring this natural heritage into your own outdoor space, creating gardens that support and celebrate local biodiversity.
Every wildlife garden design is carefully planned to provide food, shelter, and breeding sites for a variety of species throughout the year. From nectar-rich flowers for pollinators to seed heads for birds and log piles for insects, your garden becomes an integral part of Wiltshire's ecological network.
What Makes a Great Wildlife Garden?
- Native plants that have evolved alongside local wildlife
- Year-round flowering succession for continuous nectar sources
- Diverse habitats including meadow areas, shrubs, and trees
- Water features for drinking, bathing, and breeding
- Natural pest control reducing the need for chemicals
- Compost areas and log piles for insects and small mammals

Benefits of Wildlife Garden Design
Wildlife gardens offer numerous benefits beyond supporting local ecology. They require less maintenance once established, as native plants are naturally adapted to local conditions. They provide year-round interest with seasonal changes in flowering, fruiting, and wildlife activity. Many clients find wildlife gardens deeply rewarding, offering endless opportunities to observe and connect with nature.
Wildlife-Friendly Plants for Wiltshire Gardens
Charlotte carefully selects plants that thrive in Wiltshire's chalky soils and variable weather while providing maximum benefit to wildlife:
- Spring: Hawthorn, blackthorn, and primroses for early pollinators
- Summer: Lavender, foxgloves, and meadow cranesbill for bees and butterflies
- Autumn: Asters, sedum, and elderberries for late-season nectar and food
- Winter: Holly, yew, and ornamental grasses for shelter and seeds

Sustainable Garden Design Approach
Charlotte's wildlife garden designs embrace sustainable principles that benefit both the environment and your budget. Rainwater harvesting, composting systems, and chemical-free gardening methods create resilient ecosystems that largely maintain themselves while supporting abundant wildlife.
Working with Wiltshire's Natural Landscape
From the chalk downs of Salisbury Plain to the clay vales around Swindon, Wiltshire's diverse geology creates varied growing conditions. Charlotte's deep understanding of these local conditions ensures your wildlife garden works in harmony with the natural landscape, using plants and design elements that reflect and enhance the area's inherent beauty.
