What's this site all about?


Are you looking to improve your garden, or start a new garden from scratch? Well this site aims to give you all the help and guidance you need.

Having spent many years as successful garden designer, where I not only designed, but constructed and maintained many gardens as well, I have decided to share some of my secrets and also provide links to a lot of the resources I have come across and used in the past.

There are many elements to garden design, and beyond the initial landscaping, at ground level, you may want to add a path, driveway, block paving, or decking. Giving height you could add fencing, walling, or a structure like a pergola, arbor, or a garden shed. Back to ground level, you might want a water feature, and of course, the planting.

You could, of couse, get a garden or landscape designer to do the whole job for you, or you may get pleasure from doing it yourself. Even if you do get a designer, you'll still probably want to add or change things over time, so hopefully, you'll get some tips and tricks from this site.

I'm in the process of changing the site, so in the meantime, some of the pages will still be from my previous site. Keep returning and watch the updates.
