Large Country Garden, Berwickshire

A 19th century farmhouse with walled garden and large rural grounds.

Working with the client in a consultancy capacity since 2021 with the aim of developing greater successional interest. I have introduced a new mixed long border, extending views from the main living space; redesigned the planting scheme of a number of existing garden areas, assisted in the re-design of a dilapidated tennis court and established a long term maintenance program.

Further additions, include the use of small multi-stem trees and ornamental grasses as screening and the introduction of focal wall shrubs.

 “The introduction of a large, long border - running the length of our tennis court - has transformed that area of the garden. The planting is inspired with interest throughout the year.”
