It was a bit hot and a bit bright but these stunning lily flowering tulips are all open with great colour.  They sit within a courtyard enclosure within a much larger garden, surrounded by white rendered walls. We were a little surprised by the 25 degree heat this week, Gemma had her shorts on. I have been emailing our clients to remind them to keep watering.

It seems I've been a little busy and pre-occupied and so over the last 2 days I have banned the Christmas festivities,  put my 'website hat' on and uploaded some of our fab gardens completed in 2014.

We finished this garden last week, planting the final feature plants. The lighting has been tested and the hardscapes now complete. Here's Harriet positioning the tree fern: I'll return to take some night shots and some spring and summer shots for next year. garden designed by greencube, hardscapes by creative landscapes and planting by greencube Gemma will be looking after this garden on a regular basis to keep it look...
