Synopsis
Privacy in any garden is always important, but in London even more so.  As many city gardens are overlooked, creating a hidden oasis with clever use of structure and lush planting is often the perfect solution. To create an extra ‘layer’ of privacy, a bespoke wooden pergola was installed that, with its mature climbers, will form the perfect secluded dining and seating area within the garden.  The designers incorporated shelving within the pergola on which they placed a wide variety of succulents in terracotta pots. When space is limited like this, you want to ensure you can get as many plants as possible within the garden. Terracotta pots and planters of various sizes are used throughout the garden. The beautiful existing silver birch tree helps to form a natural canopy and enabled us to create a shade loving ‘woodland’ bed underneath, using graceful tree ferns and a number of wonderful foliage plants that will look stunning throughout the year.  All the planting areas are served by an integrated watering system to ensure maintenance is kept to a minimum.  The garden has a full remote controlled lighting system, which gives the garden a truly magical feel at night
