Planting styles from this post are both relaxed and informal. I picked these to showcase the garden as a green and inviting space. These are a few examples of my designs or even chosen plants that I have trialed in my own garden to see how they work.
Once I come home from work I spend some time pottering around in my own garden. I have various green “rooms” which have their own personalities and generate their own feelings. Some are formal, some are relaxed, some are productive and some are quite wild which encourages some of the local wildlife into my garden.
