Knapped flint paths Arts and Crafts House in Sevenoaks

I certainly need to factor more time to promote our finished gardens. Here's another...... SEVENOAKS Here's another garden completed last autumn and photos taken this summer. This garden is in Sevenoaks, the house has been renovated over a period of time and the garden was the last major project to complete. We have really enjoyed working with this couple who are very happy with the end result. Materials We have used knapped flint, dutch clay pavers and belgium blue paving Planting Lots of purple and white with a hint of orange and silver. and so here's what it looked like before........ garden designed by greencube garden hard landscapes - langdale landscapes garden planted by greencube 

We've just finished a town garden and its looking fab!

Greencube's new garden in Kings Hill Here we have transformed a blank canvas new build garden into a sleek and special place, balancing tropical plants with some flowering perennials with a repeat of ipe hardwood, black basalt and rendered walls in 3 colours. Hints of orange and purple are injected into the planting scheme contrasting with leafy lush banana, erybotrya and yucca to create form and structure. I'll return in a few weeks to photograph at night. Flowering Geum and Geranium giving some colour and seasonal interest. We've had the fence painted black to enhance the colours further. garden design - greencube hardscapes - Quest landscapes planting - greencube

Design is in the Detail in our Sevenoaks Garden

This newly renovated property in Sevenoaks now has this wonderful garden combining materials that textually contrast. http://greencubelandscapes.co.uk/portfolio/greencube-sevenoaks-detail.html We have included quartz paddlestones for dry stone wall effect, hardwood ipe decking that is used both vertically and horizontally with a detailed wrapped effect around 2 built in benches, porcelain paving and large focal point statement pots. I visited last week and celebrated the garden success with our clients, taking lots of images. A huge thank you goes to our landscapers - Langdale Landscapes and electrician Pete Smitherman PS Electrics, great team effort to create this wonderful space. Myself and Gemma planted the garden and Gemma and her team (our aftercare greencube gardeners) looks after it on a monthly visit. We planted this garden last year and it is already knitting together nicely. garden designed by green...
