1st Garden In Leigh, Kent I visited our clients in Leigh, Kent last week and their garden is looking really good. This was completed last year and has been maturing nicely.

Mixed with Heuchera and Pennisetum.  Now some of our clients think that Hydrangeas are an old fashion plant that they saw in their gran's garden, but here planted in bold swathes interplanted with grass makes for a modern border.
