This urban garden belongs to a middle-aged couple who are interested in gardening and growing vegetables.
For that reason, the vegetable garden is the design’s main attraction, and it blends the old and the new – the greenhouse, compost beans and cold frames – which make gardening easier.
The design offers three distinct seating areas, each serving its purpose. The first two are the dining area and coffee terraces near the kitchen entrance. The third is an evening terrace in the garden, designed solely for relaxation and enjoyment. This area features a winter-flowering cherry tree that adds year-round interest. A fountain, a rill and a mirroring pond provide a tranquil environment for deep relaxation and contemplation. In the middle of the garden, there is a huge lawn for their dogs.
The planting in this garden is a beautiful blend of natural style and formal arrangements. Using echinaceas, purple top verbenas and white veronicastrum creates a balanced scheme that attracts butterflies and pollinators. Meanwhile, the front garden showcases more formal planting with roses and rosemary.
