The Flower Garden – Surrey
We redesigned this kitchen garden, which is part of a large Victorian estate, as an ornamental flower garden. Some elements of the garden design, such as the generous gravel paths and production area, draw on its heritage, while the ‘chequerboard’ effect in the centre, created using topiary trees, clipped box and santolina, give it a highly contemporary feel. With its heady perfumes and abundant butterflies, it’s a true summer garden, providing a romantic escape from the modern world.
