The brief A newly landscaped contemporary garden with narrow planting beds, gravel, timber decking and black fencing. The aim was to soften the hard landscaping, create privacy and vertical interest, and establish a planting scheme that would feel lush despite the restricted bed space. The planting A multi-stem Amelanchier × lamarckii provides the main focal […]
The brief With the landscaping already complete, the garden provided a true blank canvas: a series of newly formed beds with no existing planting to work around. The clients wanted a garden filled with white and purple flowers, generous drifts of Hydrangea ‘Annabelle’, contrasting purple foliage and enough evergreen structure to carry the garden through winter. As […]
The brief A contemporary townhouse garden with a rendered raised border, slatted timber fencing and existing pleached trees. The aim was to soften the hard landscaping with a planting scheme that felt modern, architectural and full of movement. The planting Tall, airy plants such as Verbena bonariensis and Perovskia ‘Blue Spire’ rise through the scheme, while Agapanthus ‘Amourette Blue’ and Echinacea ‘Alba’ provide strong summer colour. […]
The brief Two symmetrical borders designed around a romantic, all-white planting palette. The aim was to create something elegant and timeless, combining strong structure with soft, generous flowering through the seasons. The planting Evergreen Pittosporum ‘Variegatum’ provides the structural framework, with Hibiscus ‘White Chiffon’ used as focal points within the symmetry of the beds. Large groups of Hydrangea ‘Annabelle’ create the main summer display, […]
The brief Snowdrop to Summer is a curated bulb collection designed to create a garden that evolves naturally from late winter through to summer. Rather than selecting bulbs individually, each variety is considered as part of a wider planting scheme, with a focus on flowering succession, colour, height and form. The planting The season begins with snowdrops and crocuses, […]
The brief A front border outside a Victorian house, designed to feel neat and structured while still offering strong seasonal interest. The planting A low hedge of Euonymus japonicus ‘Green Spire’ creates a crisp evergreen framework and was chosen as a reliable alternative to traditional box. Behind it, a repeated hedge of Hydrangea paniculata ‘Limelight’ provides generous summer flowers and a […]
The brief A complete redesign of the raised brick borders surrounding a characterful brick house. The existing beds first required clearance before being replanted with a stronger, more considered scheme that would complement the architecture and provide year-round structure. The planting Cercis ‘Forest Pansy’ forms the main focal point, its deep burgundy foliage creating a strong contrast […]
The brief A raised, semi-circular bed within a front drive, backed by a brick boundary wall and visible from the street. The existing mound contained a mixture of clay, stones and rubble, creating unusually free-draining conditions and calling for a planting scheme suited to a hot, exposed position. The planting Prunus ‘Kojo-no-mai’ forms the central focal point, […]
The brief At the centre of this Victorian country garden was an enormous flower bed that had become overwhelmed with waist-high weeds. The aim was to simplify the space, make it far easier to manage and create a strong planting scheme without disturbing the soil unnecessarily. The planting Using a no-dig approach, the existing growth […]
The brief A newly created raised bed with timber edging in a sunny Hampshire garden. The aim was to introduce abundant planting, movement and seasonal colour while selecting plants well suited to the light, free-draining conditions. The planting The scheme combines strong upright perennials with softer grasses and lower spreading plants. Veronicastrum ‘Fascination’, Echinacea ‘Magnus’ and Agapanthus ‘Amourette Blue’ provide height and summer […]
The brief A newly landscaped front drive with empty rendered beds requiring simple, effective planting. Privacy from the neighbouring property was a priority on one side, while the opposite bed needed a distinctive ornamental focal point. The planting A hedge of Photinia ‘Red Robin’ was planted to create evergreen screening, underplanted with a simple combination of Echinaceapurpurea, Geranium ‘Rozanne’ and Heuchera ‘Palace Purple’ for long-flowering […]
