Garden Themes
Although we specialise in Naturalistic planting there are many styles within this theme and we would like to understand which style you prefer, so we can design along the lines you enjoy. We will also suggest what suits your site, climate etc. Some of the many options are presented here, which you can use as reference when we discuss your preferences. Please also see the next page on the website for more ideas.
You will probably like more than one option, which is normal and themes can overlap to produce a sperate theme, but check out some ideas below to help to narrow down what you like.
If you don't see anything you like below, please find some images of what you enjoy to give us inspiration for your design.

Themes

New Perennial
Pioneered by Piet Oudolf, dominated by swathes of grasses and perennials that look natural and show interest in all seasons.

Naturalistic garden
These gardens mimic nature. The sense is that the garden happened without planning, although clever design is eviedent.

Moroccan gardens
A Moroccan garden normally has a coutryard with a water feature, plams, pots, soft seating with multi-coloured cusions and moroccan style lamps and accesories

Waterwise Gardens
Waterwise gardens use plants that suit the position they are in and that suit the climate. Requiering little water once established.

Prairie,Meadow or Wild Garden
Grasses and perennial flowers intermingled to create the natural effect of prairie.

Mediterranean
Inspired by the coast of Spain, Italy & France, combining relaxed materials & meditteranean plants with formal accents.

Tropical Garden
Lush plants are common, no bare soil is evident. The feeling is of walking through a lush native evergreen forest. Clever use of non-tropical broad leaved plants can give the look .

Rustic design
Found, often rusted items are cleverly aranged to create this eclectic garden design.

Japanese Garden
The major design aesthetic is a simple, minimalist natural setting designed to inspire reflection and contemplation.

Beach style
Pebbled areas interspersed with grasses to give the feeling of taking a stroll down to the beach. Can be done as a contemporary or naturalistic style.

Native Gardens
A natural native garden. Almost any style can be created with native plants, which reduces the need to water.

Contemporary
An exstension of your home created using raised beds, geometric shapes, wooden decking and seating areas that ooze sophistication. Clean lines using stone, wood and metal and keep your planting to a minimum for a chic and uncluttered look.
