Last garden build of the year
November, 2024
We recently completed work on this garden in Cavendish, Suffolk.
At our initial meeting, my clients were slightly despairing about what could be done with their newly acquired ‘garden’. A large garage had dominated the site, which they had removed to give them more space. However, they were faced with what looked like a building site and found it hard to see beyond this to the potential of the space. I assured them that there was so much possibility for their small space, and this was exactly the kind of challenge that I love!
The garden is newly built and planted so its full potential will emerge with time, but already it feels like a restful retreat and a space where they can entertain their extended family, which was top of their list. Encouraging wildlife was also a high priority, and they are delighted that bees have already been visiting the Heptacodium tree, highlighting the importance of later-flowering plants.
