About 30 Queens Road

This garden belongs to Natasha and her husband who have two young children. Lockdown turned Natasha’s joy of gardening into a passion and during her baby’s nap times and breaks in homeschooling, would run outside and turn what was a long, featureless lawn into a flower filled haven.

The front of the garden focuses on robust perennials and shrubs that can withstand the treatment of two young boys but a walk past the sunken trampoline and through a vine covered archway takes you the ‘grown ups’ end. In June the cottage garden style takes precedence with an abundance of homegrown flowers including foxgloves, cornflowers, snapdragons, salvias and towering echinacea pininana.

There is also a jungle border which starts to gain strength in July and Musa Basjoo, Ensete meurelii and cannas start to grow in readiness for the late summer. Through the rest of the garden are repeat flowering roses, dahlias, hydrangeas and rudbeckias with as much as possible being grown from seed.
