The Offer, In Four Numbers

No points system.No follower minimum.

Everything this partnership gives you, stated as a figure you can check.

£800–£1,500

The value of the matched pair we send you. Complimentary, chosen with you, and specified for a real location rather than picked off a list.

40%

Your ongoing discount on everything, for your own garden and for your clients’ projects. No minimum order. No restrictions. No expiry while you’re a partner.

7 days

How long we take to answer an application — yes or no. A real person reads every one, and nobody is left wondering.

A handful

Curators accepted each season. Applications are rolling and open all year, but the number we take on is deliberately small.

There is no affiliate link, no commission ladder and no posting quota. If you were hoping for a discount code to share, this isn’t that — and the Trade Members Programme may suit you better.

Who It’s For

Three kinds ofperson, one standard.

We’re looking for people whose work our plants would flatter — and who would flatter the plants back.

01

Garden designers & landscape architects

You specify structure for a living, and you already know what a badly matched pair does to a symmetrical entrance. You want stock you can put your name next to, and a supplier who will talk to you about heights and species before the drawing is signed off rather than after.

Partners in this group tend to use their pair as a working reference — something to photograph properly, show clients, and point at when explaining why a matched pair costs what it costs.

02

Design-focused content creators

Your audience is engaged and values quality over trends, and you educate rather than sell. The size of the audience matters far less to us than what it is there for: we would rather work with someone whose readers take notes than someone whose followers scroll.

If your instinct with a new plant is to explain how it was grown and how to keep it that way, you are the person this was designed for.

03

Property curators & tastemakers

Estate managers, developers of characterful homes, hoteliers, stylists, people who restore buildings properly — anyone with a platform or a network where a matched pair at a door is noticed and asked about.

You don’t need a media kit. You need a place worth putting a pair, and the inclination to tell people where it came from.

Not sure which of the three you are? Apply anyway and say so in your own words — the form below has room for it.

What’s Included

Six things,all of them real.

The whole programme, with nothing held back for a later email.

N° 01

A complimentary matched pair

Valued £800–£1,500 and chosen together with you — form, species and height picked for a specific spot you have in mind, not allocated from whatever is spare. It arrives the way every pair does: upright on its own pallet, matched to within 10cm.

N° 02

40% off, ongoing

On everything, with no minimum order and no restrictions — your own garden, a client’s scheme, a single lollipop or a drive full of cones. It applies to website pricing and to quotes, and it does not lapse while the partnership runs.

N° 03

Early access

New forms and new species reach partners before they are listed publicly. When a grower in Holland or Italy releases something unusual, you get the first look and the first refusal, which matters when a specimen is one of six in the country.

N° 04

Editorial features, with credit

Your installation is featured across our site and channels with full credit and links back to you. Not a tagged repost — a properly written feature that names you, says what you did, and sends people to your work.

N° 05

Genuine collaboration

A say in what we grow and how we present it. Partners have shaped size bands, photography and the way forms are described, because the people placing these plants in real gardens know things a catalogue never learns.

N° 06

Direct support

A direct line to the people who run this, answered within 24 hours — sizing a scheme, timing a delivery, or a photograph of a plant that is sulking. No ticket queue and no first-line script.

What We Expect

A collaboration,not a sponsorship.

Three things, and none of them is a posting schedule.

01

Photograph it properly

High-quality photography of the installation — the pair in place, in daylight, in the setting you chose it for. Those photographs become part of our gallery and our marketing, always with full credit to you and a link where one belongs.

We are not asking for a studio shoot. We are asking that the pair is shown at its best, because that is the only version of it worth either of our names.

02

Share it through your own channels

Tell your audience about the work in whatever way you normally tell them about work. This doesn’t mean constant promotion or forced content — a partner who posts twice, well, is worth more to us than one who posts monthly out of obligation.

This isn’t about follower counts, engagement rates, or contractual posting schedules. It’s about alignment.

03

Represent the standard

Quality, precision and timelessness — the three things a matched pair is for. Partners are people whose own work already argues for those, so this is less an obligation than a description.

It is a collaboration, not sponsorship. Nobody is buying your opinion, and nothing here is contingent on what you say about the plants once they arrive.

The Application

Tell us aboutyour work.

Three written answers, a few details, and an answer from us within 7 days.

The three written questions are the ones we actually read. Take your time — the boxes are proper writing boxes and they stretch. There is no word count enforced anywhere; the guides are simply the length that tends to tell us enough.

Where can we see your work?
Around 250 words. What you make, who it’s for, and what a finished piece of your work feels like to stand in front of.
Around 150 words. Be honest — “because I’ve wanted a pair like this for two years” is a perfectly good answer.
Around 100 words. The actual spot, if you have one in mind — a doorway, a courtyard, a client’s entrance, a terrace.

Applications are read in the order they arrive and answered within 7 days, either way. If you would rather just ask a question first, contact us — we answer within 24 hours.

40% Or 30%?

Two schemes,two different people.

They aren’t competing offers, and you should pick the one that describes you.

Symmetry Curator™ — this page

40% ongoing · by application

For a small number of people each season whose work and audience we want to be associated with. There is a complimentary pair valued £800–£1,500, a 40% ongoing discount, and an editorial obligation attached: photography, and sharing the work through your own channels.

You apply, we answer within 7 days, and not everyone is accepted.

Trade Membership

30% off everything · £200 a year

For any design professional who simply wants trade pricing without an editorial relationship. £200 a year buys 30% off everything — website pricing and bespoke quotes alike — plus priority allocation in the February-to-May rush and dedicated trade support. It pays for itself on a single order over £670.

Nobody is assessed and nobody is turned away. See the Trade Members Programme.

Buying for one large project rather than joining anything? The FAQs cover pricing, lead times and delivery, and the whole range is in the topiary collection.
