Come home to your own little patch of heaven. Monthly Archives: October 2014. October 21, 2014. Ivy is probably the most underestimated plant in the garden. Time after time I am asked by customers to hack it back, scrape it off, chop it down, dig it out. Obliterate it. This is usually brought on by fears of walls being pulled down, tiles being lifted, trees being smothered or ground being swamped. Now, let’s stop looking at the aesthetics of ivy and look at what it’s really here for. WILD...Please learn ...

Come home to your own little patch of heaven. Nasty shrub border revamped. May 12, 2014. The shrub border in the early stages of clearing. Overgrown laurel casting dark shade. The plan was to give some shape back to the individual plants while retaining a screen and to make space for more interesting planting. We set about removing some of the shrubs and pruning up the remaining shrubs. Some of the stems were cleared to allow light into the back of the border. The border after clearing and pruning. Nasty...
