Garden In Progress 3

This Georgian house stands beside a large pond surrounded by mature trees although its’ garden had been largely lost. A substantial pleached hornbeam square, dividing the property awkwardly, was not counter-balanced elsewhere. The design re-presents the driveway entrance with dramatic, large topiary domes. An entry courtyard has been established to create a sense of arrival and help integrate the height of the pleaching. A new flower garden to the north is connected via a tree avenue and framed by a curve of beech columns, overlooked by a new terrace and pergola. The southern terrace becomes intimate, embraced with planting and topiary shapes. Further new planting enfolds an existing circular pavilion.
