At home, a visit from a cheeky Jay (juvenile perhaps?) digging up nuts in the garden - not great!!

A video of the Jay eating a nut!

Client # 2 - Design improvements

This client, in Northchurch wishes to have a more cottage garden feel - as well as some flowing water. The garden is in great condition already - but a couple of areas can be improved.
Another visit will be required to measure the garden and sketch the existing layout.
Heres some pictures of the existing garden

Possible cottage garden and climbers against the bamboo fence

This area may have acres and a fountain

A path with borders perhaps?

Possible chill out area at the back with acers, maybe flint and water

Client # 1 - Border Laying and fixing

A client from Tring - required some plastic border guards between a flower bed and a gravelled area.
4 edges to a square area needed deepening and re-laying.
Also the total edge of the front garden needed a border guard dug in and fixed.



The back garden - very and peaceful 'zen' like quality with interesting rocks
and stone stream flowing down the garden.
Nice bamboo effect around the garden too

The before shot - edging to be done

Border edges sitting high

Border sunk into the bed with a small lip to avoid the gravel going into the bed

Left hand border - string to ensure it is straight and edge spade
to allow enough room for the border

The finished job - borders in place

Granville project - Raised beds

Good progress on the purple sprouting broccoli, radishes and leeks.
Peas are almost over, and plenty of spuds to dig up.
Sweet corn in bed 5 is starting to get flowered
