Gardens

All finished in this little terraced garden in Hove. We kept things simple, sticking sticking the levels that were in place but removing old brick planters and wonky concrete slabs, replacing them with oak sleeper planters, Indian sandstone paving and lots of Mediterranean planting.

This was a fun garden project. All soft landscaped with log edged, pine bark seating areas and lots of room for planting. The seating areas will be nestled within the planting, which emphasises seasonality – blossom, bark, stems and autumn colour as well as colourful perennials and grasses, and a spiky hedge for wildlife.

It’s taken a bit of time but been pretty transformational… From mud patch full of rubble to actual usable garden in Hove. Take a look below at what was there before!

Popped in to see this garden in Hove today, which we built and planted December 2018. Great to see it holding up so well in the recent conditions.

This has been a fun project. A transformation including seating nooks, a new pond, kitchen garden and beautiful half-covered oak pergola on a composite deck. Plus fresh screening all around and plenty of new planting. Thanks @wildimpwoodworks for help with the carpentry and @copfordsawmill for the wood.

Planting detail and drawing board still life from my day finishing up a design. Note the hairspray to fix the chalk pastel pencils I use for colouring to scan and print them. Tools of the trade!

Here we have a beautiful coastal front garden that we finished last week in Brighton. If you’d a beautiful and imaginative garden, look no further than Bees & Beans.
