The brief for this South facing front garden in Hemingford Grey, was to remove the lawn and replace it with a low maintenance, drought tolerant garden to stroll through, with a soft wafting feel to the planting.

The design delivers this with curving paths of self binding gravel, generous planting beds and a mix of evergreen structural plants, a selection of grasses and sun loving perennials.

The feeling is one of being immersed in the planting to calm the mind.

A new garden taking shape in St. Ives. This design is built around circular forms to create flow, soften the space and draw the eye through the garden. Contrasting industrial materials including gabions and reclaimed railway sleepers bring texture, structure and a modern edge. We've planted the shady areas, now waiting for some rain and cooler days to complete the planting and see this garden come to life, balancing strength with nature.

These lovely Echinacea purpurea provide a tall, vertical plant in your sunny border.

Drought tolerant, easy to grow, the perfect plant in this dry spell and the bees love them too.

The smallest visitors to the garden often make the biggest difference. Every blooms matters, every bee counts.

These simple purple poppies are attracting so many bees to the garden and all from one little seed pod, gently sprinkled in this little bare patch this spring.

Plants and pollen all for free!

Soft layers, loose drifts and a whisper of movement, this frothy herbaceous border is looking beautiful this morning. Proof that calm can be dynamic. The Ox eye daisies and Alchemilla mollis pull the whole area together and look fabulous in with other cut flowers.

The best of it is when the daisies are cut back they come again but shorter next time, giving you many more months of joy.
