By Hampshire based garden designer Jennifer Gayler. A beautiful blend of traditional and contemporary, including such features as a walled garden with potager, a croquet lawn with topiary, a wild flower meadow, a modern water garden, woodland area and a driveway lined with rhododendrons and woodland groundcover. A garden to explore!
In the image above stone terraces are planted with shrubs, perennials and bulbs for all season interest - Box ball, Choisya ternata and Euphorbia wulfenii all feature.
A long grass path edged with a dynamic planting of different shapes and textures - Phormium tenax variegata, Berberis thunbergii atropurpureum, Pyrus salcifolia pendula
Architectural Yucca cordifolia frame an iron pergola clad in Vitis cognetiae leading to a gate into the woodland.
Here an oak pergola is overflowing with Wisteria sinensis and Clematis x jackmanii to give a tantalising glimpse of the wild flower meadow and orchard beyond.
This handcrafted iron gate is draped in Rosa 'New Dawn' and Vitis cognetiae leading into the terraced walled garden.
Steps edged with Alchemilla mollis and Allium giganteum lead to a manicured lawn edged with the evergreen Quercus ilex which will be shaped into globes as they mature.
