“This rich green oasis is confined by a boundary as
often happens in urban areas. Diversity in such small areas
can be surprisingly large, with the beautiful wild flowers
attracting many animal species.
The natural habitats of many of the plant species here are
under threat from human activities. Growing UK flora is a
worthwhile and low maintenance pursuit!"

"Designing a visually attractive garden using all native
plants is difficult but I feel the design works well. This
experience has taught me the importance of regular site visits
during construction.
My favourite part of the garden is the turf-topped stone wall
which has had many positive comments from visitors. In late
summer I am looking forward to seeing the meadow and woodland
underplanting in full bloom."
