About Olena

Everything good about us comes from a happy childhood. And our memories are kept in the sounds, scents, melodies and colours... I've always loved plants - perhaps because of family influence, perhaps because nature has alwaysspoken to my heart. It began as a child's curiosity, but over time it turned into a deep passion and a labour of many years. What began with pots on balconies and experiments on small plots of land eventually turned into a real desire to help others create their own green spaces. Today, I am truly happy to be able to plant not just one, but many gardens. Each with its own soul, all unique - but all capable of bringing health, beauty and balance to the lives of their owners. For me, garden design isn't about following trends or fixed rules - it's a living, breathing process that feels care and gives back with generosity. That's why I want everyone to have a beautiful, well-tended garden. It's not that difficult and it's certainly very rewarding. I invite you to join me on this exciting journey of creating your own garden. I'd be delighted to share what I know and to help you along the way.…

Service: Installed plant climbing system; dug pits; landscape design, planting

I worked with Olena on landscape design and planting, including a plant climbing system on our wall. She designed the wall system and the planting, coordinated with the handyman for the first placements, and the communication was good - she replies fast, amended an invoice quickly, and brought her daughter to translate at important moments. Everything happened according to the schedule she set, and it looks beautiful even though the plants are still growing. The price felt fair, and we cut some costs by buying the containers and the wall system ourselves.
