A Garden Lover’s….
This lovely garden was Designed by us, it took a few months to construct as
the winter weather stopped the works.
Everything was newly built except for the pond.
The ‘crazy paving’ (old slabs broken ) were reused from the garden,everything
else was new to the garden, including a sophisticated irrigation system.
I tend to avoid crazy paving as it is so difficult to achieve an even colour to the pointing
The path to the pergola is constructed of thick treated timber with gravel between,
on the lawn edge there is are bricks laid in basketweave pattern to contain the
lawn area.
Planting is a mixture of perennials some with scents.
The perennial border fills the back edge to the garden.
The pergola was placed to help obscure the neighbours property.
The rose arch and trelliage were installed to hide the utility area of the garden,
by staining the wood black the contrast with the plants is amplified
helping to lift them into full view.
