About 41 Mill Hill Road

Adjoining the house is a sunny terrace with scented wall shrubs, lilies, oleander and a collection of pelargoniums. This leads to a paved area with raised vegetable beds, sheds with a living roof and a greenhouse with tomatoes, cucumbers and chillies. A hornbeam hedge separates this area from a rectangular lawn with a 50ft mixed herbaceous border including climbing roses and clematis; on the other side there is a lavender hedge bordering a path with a narrower spring border running along the right hand side of the garden.

At the far end, there is a raised and paved area with box topiary and a rose arbour, and behind that the compost heaps and some more beds. There are many unusual herbaceous perennials, and an increasing number of fantastic salvias which enjoy the particularly light, dry soil we have in this area. Most of the annuals and some of the perennials are grown from seed or cuttings by the owner.

The garden won first prize in Ealing in Bloom, Best Improved Garden, 2011.
