• A Coastal Cutting Garden

    This was a planting challenge; a seaside garden, where the owner wanted to be able to cut flowers for arranging in the house, but also keep in quite low maintenance. It is surprising how many plants will thrive by the sea, if they are chosen well and carefully positioned. We used a combination of flowering shrubs and ‘well-behaved’ perennials to create an informal colourful planting scheme, with enough left over for the house.
