Penny Leaze

The garden is nestled into a south-east facing slope where we have attempted to balance wildness, formal gardening, tiny orchard, and fern collection. With seasonal planting for pollinators and wildlife in mind we also grow fruit, vegetables and cut flowers.

About Penny Leaze

A half-acre garden with a 1970s house originally laid, largely to lawn has been redeveloped with wildlife in mind. Sited within an AONB towards the top of a hidden Cotswold valley. The garden now has greater biodiversity with succession planting and seasonal interest through native hedging, bulbs, wild flowers, shrubs, herbaceous borders, fernery and a productive vegetable patch with greenhouse. Pathways lead to tranquil seating areas. The garden is nestled into the countryside on a south-east facing slope where we have attempted to balance wildness and traditional gardening.
