Snowdrops are one of my favourite bulbs as they give so much hope for the year ahead.
They’re dainty, yet resilient and naturalise so effortlessly.
What are your favourite bulbs?
P.s yes I know I have a hole in my trousers 😂

Attention to detail is everything in a beautiful garden. Modern or rustic, straight or curvy, urban or country, they all benefit from going the extra mile when it comes to details.
This can be anything from the threshold where one material meets another, the craftsmanship on a timber frame, or how a sculpture is framed by planting. Some smaller things you might not even notice straight away, but it all adds up and the garden leaves an impression on you.
The images above are from a selection of gardens that I’m very proud to have created.
1. Chelsea flower show boardwalk
2. Corten ‘Tulip’ sculpture and agapanthus
3. Scalloped shingles and Helenium
4. Dancing perennials under downlighting
5. Curved sculpture that frames a view
6. Corten screen and cedar cladding with bamboo
7. Recycled steel channel & stumpery

My good friend @jacobgibbinsphoto asked me to create a plant filled paradise for his small urban garden in Bristol. What made it so exciting is that he had recently gotten into gardening - specifically Cornish gardens and exotic planting!
I designed the garden and plantings with a winding pathway that leads to the garden office, so he would be immersed in the planting every day. Large structural plants like the tree ferns, Trachycarpus and Olive all help to make you feel immersed in the garden. Even the garden room has a green roof to utilise all available space!
Jacob caught the gardening bug hard and has been experimenting with all sorts of tender and exotic plants, which you wouldn’t necessarily suggest for a new gardener, but he has leapt head first right into it!
That’s what’s gardening is all about, just trying things out, learning from mistakes and experimenting. A garden isn’t done on creation, they develop over years and a gardener will always tell you they’re never finished 😂.
Some of my favourite plants in this garden:
Cyathea medullaris
Tetrapanax papyrifera
Dicksonia antarctica
Euphorbia mellifera

It is always great to have meadow grass / wildflower patches throughout your orchard. Cutting them at different times not only benefits wildlife, but makes your maintenance schedule easier too!
These rules apply to any patches of wildflower or long grass throughout your garden to create a more diverse range of habitats in your plot 🪴

This garden deserves some love. It is packed full of neat design details and packs plenty of planting and even a lawn into a small family garden.
The Corten water feature built into the oak retaining wall and steps is a clever feature and it’s also viewed from the picture windows on the house.
The wrap around steps make the upper level of the garden open and inviting, with a whole band of wildflower hugging the top of the garden.
A family garden wouldn’t be complete without some raised veg beds, hand built by yours truly in Oak boards.
Great garden for great clients! 🙌

This is a design that works around some major existing features, such as the pool, pond and mature trees. Large planting areas surround the curved deck and will be filled with edible perennials.
Patchy lawn under the mature trees will be replaced with woodland understory planting.
Other features include an informal fire pit area nestled amongst coppiced hazels with bespoke curved seating.
The garden will create focal points that are viewed from the house and will use subtle lighting throughout.
Just working on the technical details and planting scheme at the moment. Can’t wait to share more as it develops 🪴
If anyone needs their garden designed, do get in touch! We’re taking bookings for 2025/2026.

Everyone thinks there’s not much gardening to be done now and that gardens can’t look good in January, but no matter what size garden you have, you can make one of these!
Hope you enjoy the video. Comment and let me know what you’d like to see next 🙌
