Imagination works under design
There is nothing more important for a new garden than the initial design itself. Finding that sweet spot where the wild plantscapes of the world meet a more curated choice of plants, making that space more dynamic. The idea is to re-create and manipulate nature’s flawless beauty in an orderly way. Soft and harmonious swathes of grasses in conjunction with perennials that blend easily make up the base matrix. Which is then punctuated by big and bold perennials for colour and shape.
Design management
Taking a big project step by step is the key for success. From plant combinations to soil conditions and hard landscaping elements a good design is practical, visually captivating as it connects the whole and seamlessly flows with it.
Shaping the look of a display is a temporary form of art that constantly needs input from the gardener. To be able to interfere skilfully, means looking at the local flora to allow spontaneity and inspiration to make plants intermingle in an effortless fashion.
