New Gardening from above

Posted on December 5th, 2009

I was delighted to take the opportunity of our client’s invitation to view the garden from upstairs window. How interesting it is to see an all familair plan view from the vantage point of a bedroom window. Not only is the view much different and interesting but the gentle curves appear to take one on a much more sweeping  journey around the garden.

The fencing looks particularly striking and although the planting forms and colours were distinctive, planting appeared new and perhaps less developed from above. Still there is always the exciting prospect of future growth.  The Patio areas were certainly beautiful and the warm tones of Ravena sandstone really eye catching. I look forward to hopefully re-visiting the garden in late Spring but will always have fond memories of what was a very challenging but exciting project and the results of our efforts make me  proud.  

Unfortunately poor weather hampered my attempts to take photos from above but still we were all very happy with what we could see.
