Elena Marsh

Garden designer and founder
Elena started Greenway in 2011 after eight years designing gardens for a landscape practice in Bristol. She runs every survey herself and draws every plan, and she will tell you early if what you want will not work on your slope or your soil.

What our clients say, a year on

¨Greenway surveyed the slope, told us two of our ideas would not drain, and drew something better. Eleven weeks on site, one week late because of frost, and they said so on the Monday rather than the Friday. Two summers on it still looks like the drawing.¨
