Scroll the page and the garden moves through the seasons

The old OpenCart site listed 15 products across 41 categories, 30 of them empty. Visitors found empty shelves, missing photos and labels left in English.

The home page is one continuous world: the same garden moves through nine scenes, from spring to winter, and the clips advance as the visitor scrolls. Each season brings forward the plants that look their best at that time. The rest of the site is a WooCommerce shop with cash on delivery. The delivery cost is confirmed by phone, because it depends on distance and volume. The delivery area is shown on an interactive map drawn from public geographic data.

Each plant page has a gallery, growing conditions, a “Seasonal look” table with foliage, height, width and pot size, plus similar plants. It prints on a single A4 page, so it can go out into the garden.

The nursery team changes texts and images on its own from a “Site content” panel with 439 labelled fields, and cannot break the layout while doing it. I also redrew the logo as a vector, starting from the client’s own mark: five leaves arranged in a spiral. The site meets WCAG 2.2 AA, sends security headers and a content security policy, and every old address leads to the new pages through 301 redirects, so the nursery keeps its Google rankings.
