Project: The low maintenance front garden

This front garden is in a city location in Jesmond, Newcastle-upon-Tyne and had been left to go to ruin by the previous occupants. The owner has a demanding job and wanted a virtually maintenance free but interesting garden to come home to.

An eye-catching design was implemented for the path and the plants chosen, whilst providing both leaf and flower colour, only require attention once a year! Coordinating gravel was chosen as a mulch which has been laid on a weed suppressing membrane.
