Having been involved in the making of medal winning gardens at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show we decided to create our own themed gardens to give visitors the Chelsea experience all year round. Our 15 themed gardens are all very different but will offer inspiration for your own garden. See how your mood changes as you go from the Celtic garden or the Tropical or Italian gardens. Perhaps your favourite will be the Perfumed garden or the Oriental one.
Our customers visit them again and again looking for the changes each season brings. They love to bring their visitors and friends for a great day out.
We really enjoyed designing the maze. We had to visit lots of other mazes in order to discover just what makes for the most fun. Too big and it gets boring, too small and there is no challenge. You should be out of it in 15-20 minutes. After studying lots of books we enlisted the help of our nephew, David, who is excellent at design, and he came up with our plan. We used Cypress Lawsons for the hedges because of its dense and tidy growth. At 6 ½ ft high you can’t cheat by looking over the top to find your way. We think it’s just right, and if you get lost there is usually a child around to help you out!
