The process of designing a garden is one that depends on imagination. So much of my work involves conveying a concept to a client, and helping them imagine how their garden can look different - and better!
This lovely Sevenoaks garden planting design is now one and half years old and planting we imagined has now matured, looking lush and green this April.
A terraced garden with layers of mature plants, the lower bed was especially in need of some help back in 2023.

The bed had been added to bit by bit over the years with little thought to a cohesive plan, and when the wall crumbled it was time to replant. The client wanted a planting plan that would create a more uniform effect and introduce some structural evergreens.

Pittosporum 'Golf ball' has been combined with the upright leaves of Sisyrinchium along the border which is all looking lush and green.

If you have a garden border that you think would benefit from a fresh perspective, please get in touch. I'd love to help.
