DESIGN

GUINEVERE'S GARDEN

The best gardens develop over time and are influenced by those caring for them. All gardens involve some form of design whether that be subtle and evolving or sudden, eye catching and dramatic. 

- A Garden is Art and Design -

​

Below is a selection of my own garden designs.

An English Cottage Garden

This garden had been severely neglected as the property had been empty for many years.

The brief was to slowly bring the garden back under control whilst cataloguing and caring for all of the existing plants.

Research was carried out to restore the garden to it's former "Cottage Garden" glory and then build on this to improve the structure and planting in keeping with its traditional style.

A Classic Walled Garden

This garden was set in a courtyard behind a town house.  The brief was to have the timeless style of an old English Walled Garden which comes to life in the Spring, has a splash of May time colour, and really comes into its own during the summer months. 

The garden has bulbs, fruit, herbs, traditional English garden plants, and a Taxus Baccata (Yew) Topiary, The Yew anchors the garden to give the impression it has been established for many years.
