Low Maintenance Garden
The Client
The 40 something Director of a local department store, having moved with his family into a brand new property in Little Canfield, between the Essex towns of Dunmow & Takeley.
The Challenge
The garden needed areas for dining & chilling out, to be low-maintenance, use modern materials & have exotic, “over-the-top”, but easy-care plants & above all to be FUN.
The Solution
Using bright, contemporary horizontal trellising on all boundaries lifts the space, keeps the eye in the garden & provides a great foil for the exotic planting.
Synthetic grass, Rubadeck around the hot-tub & raised planters topped with cobbles offer long lasting, safe & low maintenance solutions.
A self-contained stainless steel water wall sits opposite the main window.
The building of the garden was filmed with a time-lapse camera & can be viewed on YouTube.
