2 Brooklands Avenue

A garden developed since 2019, on a west facing sloping site to the front and rear of the house. The design is inspired by a passion for interesting and unusual plants, and the naturalistic planting style of Dutch garden designer Piet Oudolf. Much of the planting is through landscaping fabric, to suppress weeds and reduce watering, thereby reducing maintenance.
