A couple of progress photos of a new millboard deck with oak retaining wall and steps in Tonbridge. Once the landscaping is completed I’ll be working closely with the client to create a planting scheme which will work with the slope. This sunny deck midway down the garden is going to be a such a cool place for the family to hangout! more to follow….

Not every garden comes with a view like this one in Sutton Valence. Gardening on a slope is always a challenge, planting one is something else especially in this heat. I couldn’t do it without Charlie who patiently helps me to set the plants out, moving them a bit to the left, a bit to the right, before getting on with planting them. Just some hard landscaping and the essential irrigation to finish. Can’t wait to see how the garden develops over the next couple of years.

Smart clay pavers were used to raise the level and frame the lawn in this new contemporary garden makeover in Rochester increasing the depth of soil to give the grass more of a chance of survival in this chalky sunny site.

Crazy that it’s been 10 years this week since designing and building the Wellbeing of Women Show Garden at RHS Hampton Court flower show with & . It was such hard work but we had a lot of fun, met so many lovely people and learnt so much and the People’s Choice Award for best small garden was the icing on the cake!

When creating a palette for planting schemes yellow is the most common colour clients say they don’t like followed closely by orange however they can be the perfect contrast to other flowers providing a pop of colour that lifts a scheme from dull to dynamic. To celebrate how beautiful they can be here are some citrus flowers which are giving a real zing to the garden at the moment.
1. Asphodeline lutea
2. Geum ‘Totally Tangerine’
3. Iris ‘Rajah’
4. Tulip ‘Ballerina’
5. Paeonia ludlowii
