their landscapes.
“My husband and I employed Michael Wheatcroft of Form & Foliage to design a garden for our home in 2001 and have since enjoyed living in a beautiful environment that couldn’t have been better suited to our lifestyle.
Over the years it has been a pleasure to entertain in and watch the plants evolve in harmony. We are both busy people and Michael’s design gave us a low maintenance property where we occasionally picked up dead leaves and thinned out plants.
People see value in tidy low maintenance properties and the garden undoubtedly contributed to the value and sale of our property in April 2009 despite the recession.
We will definitely be using Form & Foliage for our next landscape.”

“My husband and I had always wanted a subtropical garden, a real sanctuary to come home and escape to. We went to the home show and surveyed the many landscape artists, choosing who we thought was the perfect designer. Unfortunately whatwe received was several poor and unrealistic designs, at a very exorbitant price.
Then a friend suggested Michael from Form & Foliage - he was an absolute godsend! Michael designed the perfecttranquil garden - just what we'd imagined. He listened impeccably, made wonderful suggestions and followed the brief to a tee. What's more he did it with incredible flair andstyle, and came in right on budget. We'll definitely be using Form & Foliage to create our next oasis -regardless of the fact we now live in Sydney!”

“Michael Wheatcroft of Form & Foliage has been the landscape consultant on many of our projects. The projects have been both residential and commercial in nature. The scope of work that he has performed has been a full design service. Michael has designed the landscaping and prepared the necessary drawings and written work for Resource Consent submission and approval.
We have always found Michael's work to be excellent. The clarity of communication, in particular with regards the drawings he prepares, greatly assist us as architects in seamlessly dovetailing the two disciplines.
The varied nature of the projects goes to show the broad scope of his skills. We have found Michael to be very professional and wouldn't hesitate to recommend his services.“

Joehan & Partners liased with Form and Foliage (Mr. Michael Wheatcroft) for the project Waihi Academy, Waihi where Form & Foliage was engaged by G & W Ltd to design, coordinate and oversee the development of its landscape. The project was built over 10 hectares and involved the development of 9 main buildings (Main Hall, Admin Building, Classrooms, Staff Dorm, Student Dorms, etc) and the associated infrastructure and services. Experienced and creative planning of the landscape was pivotal in coordinating all of the external elements of the Academy and engaging with the many other consultants involved in the project.
"Form and Foliage delivered their services professionally and on time, often within very tight time constraints. They responded with sound solutions to the many changes during the projects construction and the result is an impressive, easy care landscape for the Academy.
Michael Wheatcroft is an honest and friendly person who has good rapport with people (the client, consultant Team and the Council). I have no hesitation in recommending him to prospective clients".

Hi Michael,
“With the completion of the pool and the onset of summer, the true value of the outdoor spaces created at our home in Westmere is being revealed. It really is special and a wonderful environment for our baby (soon) to come.
Best wishes to you for Christmas and the holiday season.”
