What's looking good in our garden we maintain in Tunbridge Wells?

This garden in Langton Green is maintained weekly by Harriet at greencube. This garden was designed  and planted by greencube in 2011. Harriet has been out taking some lovely photos recently with her new camera..... Here the Hydrangea prezioza, just taking on its autumn colour, basking in the low morning sunshine. The Chaenomeles have been trained and tied to the retaining wall in espalier style. underplanted with Hemerocallis. The berries on the Pyracantha have been abundant this year.

We have matched the materials with white render, cedar decking and dark grey granite to match the windows. We have also had fun designing a piece of land art, sculpted beautifully by contractors KS Groundworks.  Bringing a fun element and change in level to what is a very flat open space. hiding the parked cars and shed as well as the boundary and neighbour's properties. This is it's new winter look, in summer it will be covered in meado
