"There are proven benefits to being one with nature!" - Neville Capil
Gardens Green by Neville Capil
Neville Capil is proud to offer you over 27 years of gardening skills backed by a stack of excellent awards and certificates earned both in the UK and New Zealand.
Neville Capil started out as a farmer and forestry worker in southern New Zealand and came to England in 2000,
initially working as a Tunnel Manager for a strawberry farm where he realised his passion for plants and nature.
His venturing far from home proved to be a blessing in disguise when he started working for himself and started his long contract with Eccleston Square between 2004 and 2016. The garden won a number of awards, including Best Garden Square and 1st Prize Large Private Garden Square in the London Garden Squares Competition.
Neville's passion for nature and plants did not go unnoticed, he was the gardens contractor one day a week for Hereford Square, a 1 acre private garden for 45 residents, from 2010 to 2016. During his time there,
the garden won a number of awards.
Neville and his family returned to New Zealand for 2 years (2016 - 2018) and while he was there, Neville became the botanical garden manager of Timaru's 47 acre Botanical Garden. In 2017 the botanical garden was awarded the
New Zealand Gardens Trust "Garden of National Significance" Certificate.
Today, Neville is happy to be back on British soil and recontracted by Hereford Square to help improve their garden;
while he continues to pursue his passion by offering his garden services to all Garden Squares and Private Gardens
in and around London. Neville also provides pruning services for Roses and Wisteria.
