This Mediterranean garden for relaxation will highlight the increasing potential of growing tropical plants in the UK due to the changing climate we have experienced in recent years.
In light of the documented forecast for long dry summers, this garden needs minimal water to retain its beauty. The garden is defined by three feature walls, which provide a sense of enclosure but also become a backdrop to the specimen olive trees.
Rows of cypress trees along two sides of the garden create a sense of anticipation for passers-by who will be attracted to the Cheshire pink gravel paths leading in to the garden.
