October and still this garden is full of colour and texture.

Planted earlier in the year the plants have shown remarkable resilience to the hot dry summer, but some are a little confused as to what season it is!

I’m not sure I’ve seen lavender flowering in October before but here it is alongside the equally blooming Geranium Roxanne.

The Hellebores flowered in September ahead by many months of their usual winter display, makes you wonder what will happen next year..

It’s great to see the garden in full use by the young family, a well loved space is much more inviting than a pristine polished environment.

The garden is evolving and soon bulbs will be planted which will be flowering in spring, or that’s the plan….

A delight to return to this gorgeous town garden set on many levels.

A fair amount of head scratching was needed to deal with the challenging site to ensure a safe transition from the existing lower patio up to the main garden.

Key considerations were protecting the fall from upper level to lower patio, we wanted the north facing garden to feel as light as possible and to glimpse the garden from the lower ground floor of the house. The glazed screening is the perfect choice, safe, light and non intrusive.

The rotten wooden staircase has been replaced with a steep rockery with lush ferns and other ground cover shade loving plants.

I loved seeing the space functioning as a family friendly garden this morning.

The provides a wonderful space for relaxing whilst watching the children play.

Huge thanks to team Refined Landscapes and Hertfordshire Drives & Landscapes for excellent landscaping and problem solving skills!

What an explosion of colour and texture in this beautiful garden we designed and planted in March this year.

So great to see the plants doing so well despite the challenge of this summers heat. Thank goodness for the simple irrigation that was installed straight after the plants went in.

The planting scheme catered to the two different aspects of the garden, sunshine on the left versus shade on the right.

Many plants are repeated throughout the borders to give a coherent scheme full of rhythm rather than a random mix of perennials and shrubs. A variety of grasses were included in the plans and these work well to bring movement to the garden.

A little bit of cutting back to do and a few tweaks to make in the autumn but overall the clients are delighted with the gardens progress.

Delighted to return to this award winning garden we designed and planted in March this year.

The planting is looking fabulous just a few months on. I am so relieved the clients installed irrigation which has helped the plants cope with the extreme heat of the summer.

We are starting to help the clients maintain the borders and so a little bit of cutting back and weeding is needed but I’m so pleased with how the scheme has come together.

Removing a lawn from a garden can seem daunting, but the finished result can be so much more interesting than looking at a flat green (or brown at the moment) square.

I paid a visit today to this gorgeous little garden we completed last November to check on how the planting has coped with the hot dry conditions.

The raised area leads from a lower patio to the summerhouse beyond and the limestone paving creates an additional seating area surrounded by lots of planting.

There are strips of creeping thyme breaking up the paved strips and in between the plants is a mulch of Cotswold stone chippings.

The ornamental grasses and perennials are loving the sunny location.

The client has added her own personal touch with sphere lights and sculptural flower stakes.

Still room for a swing ball set!

Wonderful to recieve these fabulous photos today from a happy client!

The planting is really thriving and is packed full of colour. The borders will become more established over time, not bad for starters though as we only planted in March.

Thrilled to have made the shortlist for the Pro Landscaper Project Awards!

Our design to create a garden for the whole family, including areas to cook and entertain together with plenty of space for play for the young children has been shortlisted for the category “Design between £50,000 - £100,000”

It really has been a joy to work on this scheme alongside the brilliant team and I’m delighted with the end result and most importantly so are the clients!

The strong Zig Zag layout of the paving stones are now nicely softened by the rich planting scheme just one year on from planting.

The grasses are looking amazing at this time of year, I love to use Stipa gigantea to add height and create gentle screens to areas.

Plenty to enjoy throughout the year in this long garden. The lovely client is a fan of bold colours, so we’ve included plenty in the planting scheme with Geums, Salvias, Verbenas and Alliums amongst others providing pops of colour.

I particularly like the fun pieces of sculpture and furniture dotted around the garden providing great focal points.

Love this garden! We only finished planting a month ago and already the garden is looking settled and the plants have put on great growth.

Such a delight to see the planting bring the garden back to life. The new entertaining space is surrounded by a fresh planting scheme for the sunny aspect, with a mix of evergreen shrubs, grasses and perennials. The palms have certainly enjoyed the recent heatwave, thankfully the lovely clients have installed irrigation.

Moving further down the garden there are plenty of shady pockets that are the perfect place for some fabulous Acers, hydrangeas and ferns.

I’m looking forward to seeing this one mature into something special.

Plenty of focal points in this wonderful garden completed last autumn. With the bonus of a large plot and mature trees we were able to incorporate a number of interesting elements into this design without impacting the openness of the space.

Very pleased to hear the clients held a large garden party last weekend and made the most of the new layout.

The planting will take another year to really establish, but even in the few months since being planted there is plenty of growth to be seen.

Can’t wait for the pleached hornbeams to fill out and create a substantial screening and backdrop to the water feature built into the raised planter.

The main central bed also incorporates a water table and once the plants fill out, there will be a great contrast between the square feature and the frothy foliage…..that’s if the pet cats can leave the grasses alone 😅
