RHS Gold Medal & Best Small Garden in Show BBC Gardeners World Live 2006

The garden, called 'SEA HEAR'   was influenced by the sights, sounds and sensations of the coast and has a strong relaxation theme. It also included a fantastic trompe l'oeil painting by Yorkshire based artist Julie Cope.

Chelsea 2006 - A Stand for 'Original Stone Troughs'
I have also designed a stand for a Yorkshire based company, 'Original Stone Troughs' who supply genuine old stone troughs, feeders, garden ornaments and furniture. The stand featured some stunning planted troughs and genuine stonewear and had a lovely country feel, and was awarded a special commendation at Chelsea 2006.

Cost of A Design
To give a general idea of costs, a garden layout plan starts from £750 for a garden up to 100 square metres, with a package including a planting plan starting from just £850.

Waiting Times
I usually have a waiting list of up to 6 months - and at the moment I am booking designs to start in March 2009
