A stunning Japanese inspired garden that is elegant, timeless and welcoming.  The garden cleverly combines influences from Japanese style gardens, representing our clients heritage, and planting from Europe.  Creating a place to relax and spend precious leisure time with family and friends, amongst nature. 

This atmospheric and peaceful garden was planted with strong structural plants with several cloud pruned and topiary specimen pieces. Much of the larger, en masse planting is green with a simple and minimal palette to create a calming rhythm as well as an easy to maintain garden. Herbaceous perennials were used to add pops of colour throughout the seasons. The garden showcases several large trees, as well as smaller varieties such as Prunus 'Accolade' multi stems, to provide screening and vertical interest throughout the space.
