The Adam Frost Landscapes City GardenThis garden is beautiful and achievable. It is a simple design, which has form, structure and sumptuous planting. This urban garden has been designed to highlight what can be achieved in any small space.

Soft red York hand-made bricks form the walls, raised bed and panel’. These contrast with the diamond-sawn York-stone paving and water feature.

Planting is a mixture of grasses, colourful perennials and shrubs, which add depth and structure. The walls are softened with climbing wisteria and roses. Above the raised bed there is a timber lounger, from which the owner can relax and enjoy the garden.

A drawing of Adam Frost Landscapes City GardenAdam Frost says that Realist Retreat is a garden to encourage urbanites to enjoy the outdoors, whether it is for gardening, relaxing or entertaining.
