How to change your garden...colour combinations

How to change your garden...colour basics

Colour is another important aspect of how a garden can make us feel when we look at it and immerse ourselves within the garden.  A garden without colour is not really a garden, but just an outside space waiting to be improved. That doesn't mean that an all green garden is not a garden because green is colour which can be as...

Height attracts the eye and can focus our attention away from ground level which means that we can see beyond the garden. So a distant view, the skyscape etc can all bec...

How to change your garden...focal points

While structure can lead the eye, a focal point gives the eye something to rest on and enjoy.  They can be subtle, like an arrangement of three different evergreens, or full on - in your f...

Late winter garden notes 1

  Large gardens need constant care and attention throughout the year.
