summer colour, material inspiration and garden ideas

greencube are always striving for new and interesting planting combinations, differing materials that contrast with the homes that will last and look great years later. I've been out and about taking photos of some of our gardens, majority of which are maintained by gemma, our well equipped and knowledgable greencube gardener. here's a few images that hopefully convey our passion at greencube for each and every garden we work on.... Here in a garden in SE12 London , we have just completed a small courtyard garden which I'm visiting next Monday to photograph but here are a few images of work in progress: Here we have installed sentry box style sheds, making them a prominent part of the garden design painted in muted clay colour to contrast with the western red cedar.

Tulips, obelisks and arbours

We have just completed a new garden in Sevenoaks - a beautiful old coach house built originally in 1836, it now has a wonderful front garden with obelisks, old style coach house brick platforms with oversized pots bursting at the seems with daffodils and tulips. Slate paving and an arbour. A tasteful mix of old and new linking back to its heritage then jumping forward to the 21st century. Garden designed, planted and project managed by greencube, hardscape by Langdale Landscapes. Gemma now maintains this garden monthly. The resin bound drive is just about to be applied the last of the hard landscaping jobs. I will return to take further photos during the spring and summer to hopefully capture this wonderful garden through the seasons.
