NS – Streatham Family Garden – March 2017
I used Henrietta Gentilli Garden Design to completely redo our garden a year ago and am very happy to recommend her. She worked closely with me to create exactly what i wanted for our small family space (i researched a lot ahead of time so knew what i liked) and was really helpful in deciding on how large the decking are should be, where the shed should go, and having a vision of how the garden would look once complete. After the builders we had in previously, it was so refreshing to use Henrietta. She and her team were professional, patient with the children, and so nice to have around, approaching the project with good humour and enthusiasm whatever the weather!
WEST DEAN GARDENS – COMING TO LIFE
EARLY MARCH Long Harold Peto Pergola at nearly 100m length with wisteria ready for bursting in couple of months.... Espalier pears on a tripod blossom soon and fruit in autumn Potting shed and winter structure muted monotones...
Early spring – plants, pears, pergolas about to burst!
Close up of brave aconites emerging with snowdrops nearby in bitter cold of late February morning.
The walled garden here at West Dean is all about structure and monotone colours beyond the green. Pear and apple trees are trained espaliers against walls and in pyramids – awaiting blossom in April and fruit in September. West Dean Gardens boasts one of the longest pergolas in the country at 100m long – by June it will be engulfed with purple wisteria.
