Meet the Vivid Gardens Team
How Vivid Gardens Began
Vivid Gardens grew from a family passion for plants that began over 30 years ago. Founder Erika Meh took that lifelong love and shaped it into a dedicated garden design and landscaping business based near Beaconsfield, creating beautiful, practical green spaces for people to enjoy. Today, Vivid Gardens works across Buckinghamshire, Hertfordshire, Oxfordshire, Berkshire, and throughout London, with Erika established as a South Buckinghamshire and Chilterns garden designer known for thoughtful planting, creative design, and genuine care in every project.
Erika has more than 20 years of hands-on gardening and design experience, a journey that started in her childhood in Hungary. Weekend trips to vibrant flower markets, filled with colour and fragrance, sparked her fascination with plants and design. After moving to the UK, she fell in love with the country’s rolling landscapes and natural charm and has spent the years since developing deep practical knowledge of local soils, microclimates and plants that thrive here. She now pours that inspiration into her work, sketching thoughtful plans and transforming them into living, breathing spaces. Her aim is simple: to make every garden feel more uplifting, more inviting, and more colourful all year round.
What We Do & Why Clients Choose Us
We’re a team of plant enthusiasts, horticulturists, and landscapers, ready to bring your garden ideas to life across Buckinghamshire and the surrounding Home Counties. From cosy private gardens and rooftop terraces to indoor green spaces in offices, we have the expertise to create beautiful, practical spaces that you’ll love for years. We plan every detail using professional design tools like Vectorworks, creating clear planting schemes and garden designs that visually show how your space will look once completed.
Living walls are one of our favourite solutions. They’re perfect for smaller spaces in the city or countryside, adding greenery without taking up valuable floor space. They’re not only visually stunning but also encourage wildlife, help manage rainwater, and improve building comfort.
Whether you’re looking for regular maintenance or a complete garden transformation, we design with the British weather and local conditions in mind. Our plant choices and designs create resilient, vibrant spaces, with wildlife-friendly areas using native and climate-suited species that can withstand wind, rain, and sun. We have particular experience working with different soils, from chalky ground in the Chilterns to heavy clay along the Thames, so your garden stays lush and beautiful all year round, without constant fuss
From small gardens to large-scale commercial landscapes, we do it all, designing, building, and caring for outdoor spaces with expertise and a down-to-earth approach.
