This probably wasn’t what they had in mind, but it’s the best thing ever.

The garden is absolutely BUZZING with bees, birds, butterflies and other wildlife too 🙌.

Great clients and a great build with @johnstonelandscapes

Possibly a controversial take, but I think having topiary in a naturalistic planting, makes it even better!
Plants from this scheme listed below 🌸.

Whatever the shape may be, the contrast (or juxtaposition if you want to use designer lingo) between the clipped structure and the wild planting, is what really makes the planting stand out.

As humans we crave that contrast. A full field of long meadow grass looks nice, but if it has a mown winding path through it, you’re naturally drawn to that change between neat and wild.

The other benefit for the topiary is that it provides a strong evergreen structure throughout the seasons, always locking the scheme together.

You could do the same with other evergreen plants, and I do that too, but for me nothing beats a crisply clipped Yew!

P.s I haven’t aged…a few years… that’s my legend of a step dad who was out working with me 😂. He loves clipping topiary!

Plants in shot:
Taxus (Yew) topiary dome
Salvia ‘Caradonna’
Sesleria autumnalis
Deschampsia cespitosa

Amongst and around this are also
Geum ‘Mai Tai’
Persicaria amplexicaulis ‘Alba’
Rudbeckia ‘Goldsturm’
Echinacea ‘Pretty Parasols’
Astrantia ’Large White’

A load of plants and year to grow can make a massive difference to a garden…

I loved designing and planting up this garden and each time I visit I’m excited to see how the plants are behaving themselves, however not everything goes to plan! There’s always tweaks and changes to be made, but it’s looking pretty good.

The challenge is the weeding, especially in the first year after disturbing the seed bed. It will calm down though now they’re filling out.

Also have everyone’s Geum’s gone crazy this year?!

This wasn’t part of the plan..

I had this random idea on site one day after staring at some of the boulders lying around. Thankfully the @johnstonelandscapes team were actually excited to put these into place! 💪

They were heavy lifting and required some precision cuts to get the sat down nicely over the edges.

They were even free as we were using boulders reclaimed from the existing garden.

Sometimes the best details on a project come during the build itself. Thanks for always being adaptable @johnstone_landscapes_jake

Who else thinks the brink of Spring comes and goes too fast?

It’s so good to see Spring flowers bursting to life, with the bare bones of the garden still on show. Then all of a sudden it’s full steam ahead and everything is in leaf!

This is a project of mine on the edge of Dartmoor and has held up very well even with our soaking wet winter. Can’t wait to see more of the bulbs come through. The Magnolia ‘Stellata’ is putting on a serious display!
