Featured garden

Being a water lover, the waterfall certainly did
catch my eye, but water lover or not, you are
drawn in by the wonderful usage of such lush
and inviting plants. The Peace in the home and
the Maiden hair fern look as if they are part of
the waterfall, trying to splash down into the pond
below. A little piece of paradise!
At the far end of the garden, almost hidden away,
is the final bit of magic – a bricked pathway leads
you through a shady woodland, created by Fever
trees. The woodland floor is covered with the most
beautiful array of grasses, ferns, succulents and
several other sun loving plants which have done
surprisingly well in the dappled shade.
Not one corner has been neglected; even the
garden shed has been included in her landscaping.
Like many keen gardeners, her garden is a neverending project and I hope she can maintain her
eyesight to enjoy the wonder she has created.
Thank you to the Swales for sharing your inspiring
garden with us.
