Ideas and thoughts shaping my garden
While a small garden I love the idea of packing in as much punch as I can. To achieve this I would like zones or pockets of difference.
Links will take you to preferred plants and suppliers who can deliver.
Gate
Over my new entrance gate, I love the idea of soft pink wisteria intertwined with hot pink clematis.

Everything pink terrace
Hot raspberry pink, is my favourite colour and I love more. With this in mind, one terrace is dedicated to all things pink and gorgeous. The area is full sun and while I love a tall show off like hollyhocks, stock and Lupins these plant are best under 1 metre in height

As a Daphne my garden would not be complete without Daphne plants. I would like to add deep pink hellebores among the existing Daphne plants

Verge conversation
Rather than grass, I am working to a sea of colour as you approach my home. Trailing Gazania, African daisies, yellow Bidens and Arctotis varieties are ideal for this very hot and dry location.
