Brand new landscaping to this garden included new sweeping borders to lawned area and terraced beds spanning the ceramic steps and patio areas, designed and installed by Custom Gardens. I was instructed to create the planting, which was to be the backdrop for wedding celebrations. Frothy perennials and grasses, together with flower heavy shrubs have created borders and beds which provide colour through many months of the year.

A new build front garden in need of a new look. Located in a full sun position, the area was ideal for drought tolerant planting and so a gravel garden was designed. Planting included Ballota pseudodictamnus, Dierama pulcherrimum, Erigeron ‘Sea Breeze’ and Verbena bonariensis. The garden copes very well with zero additional watering and the gravel and stones supress weeds and retain moisture. Twice yearly maintenance is all that is needed.
