Synopsis
Small country garden with strong structure and lush planting. Made on a narrow site between the rampart of an Iron Age hill fort and the road, yew and box topiary and hedging frames borders full of intensely coloured perennials and annuals including dahlias, thalictrums, ricinus and marigolds. In August the garden is full of colour and flowers. Terracotta pots brimming with lush pelargoniums and tender salvias add more flowers to the scene, and a collection of succulents is displayed beside a water feature. A small garden with bags of style and a strong sense of design, while showing how flowering can extend into late summer and well beyond.
