Courtyard Garden near Wadebridge

 
The courtyard before work started.  It was full of straggly lavender, old weedy gravel and badly laid stones.....
 
 
The clients wanted to create a stylish and formal garden in keeping with the house; with different textures; raised beds to act as informal seating and a central feature to bring everything together.
 
The wonderful existing granite uprights were kept in place with new raised beds, slate paving and a central pool surrounded by pebbles and lavender beds.....
 
 
Standard bay trees sit in each corner of the lavender beds.....


 
 
 
The planting is simple and elegant with lavender, rosemary, standard bays, an olive tree, agapanthus, nepeta and sedums amongst others....perfect for this style of courtyard.....
