Brief
Some gardens are a haven
for plant lovers and this garden in Orpington really shows off attention to detail
in both planting and materials. When space is limited you can't afford to
waste a single square inch. The
old patio was removed, new pathways introduced and the whole garden given
a sense of curvaceous movement to create drama, with the plants as the
main players.
Hot colours filter the view
to the cool water feature

Foliage combines with flowers for an explosion of colour
|
A cool retreat in a
shady corner.

Under the shade of
trees, silvers mix with architectural forms
|
Sympathetic
contrast is key to catching the eye. |
Colour from the
ground up. |
