ABOUT 

Heidi Bowater

As the lead designer and owner, my love for plants and design led to starting my company Evergreen. With an extensive knowledge of plants my designs are created to be successful, with the right plants suited to the right environment. 

I enjoy designing with a naturalistic approach and try to bring nature into the garden while working on sustainability and natural flowing elements. I design all types of gardens, sub tropical, contemporary or formal, depending on the needs and wishes of the clients. 

​

I focus on bringing balance and unity into the garden from the surrounding environment while creating functional spaces for the client’s needs.

​

I look forward to working with you and your garden.

“We engaged Heidi’s landscaping services to come up with a plan for an attractive, low-maintenance garden. We have a sloping, hot, dry section and Heidi created a design that suited the environment whilst not looking too structured. We plan to do the planting ourselves in stages. Heidi was great to deal with throughout and I highly recommend her services.” – Jo

"Heidi was both approachable and professional and took the time to create a low maintenance, attractive planting plan that fitted with our brief and suits our harsh environment. We are very pleased with the results" - Tracy (see 'Rural Retreat - Matakana')

​

"We met Heidi via a contractor on our bare piece of land. The land had hard clay soils and high grass everywhere.

Heidi met us onsite to get a feel of the place, the area and what sort of plants would thrive there.  She has a very personal approach. With her extensive knowledge we spoke about colour, plants and layout.  Her designs give a complete visual of what the area can become and she was happy to tweak the design to our liking. She created a maintenance plan for future use, which is very useful.  We still engage with Heidi when needing advice for areas of the garden and she is very approachable in sharing her knowledge. It was and still is a pleasure to "work" with her."–

"We engaged Heidi to create a landscape plan for our small garden, aiming for a low-maintenance subtropical feel and that was easy enough for us to do ourselves.  We are thrilled to say that Heidi surpassd our expectations.  Her experise and creativity resulted in a stunning design that perfectly captured the desired ambiance.  The plans were beauiftully rendered and we knew exactly what the end results would look like.  We highly recommend Evergreen Design for any landscaping project.  Our garden is slowing taking shape and will be a beautiful, low-maintenance subtropical paradise thanks to her exceptional work.
