Landscaping

Category: Garden — Ian C. @ 9:37 pm

This is two months late - sorry!
For a long time we’ve been planning to have the front garden redone; the old patio was ugly and there was a square unfinished, left over from the addition five years ago (!). The brick paths are straight & ugly, and the grass was battered from the trucks & dumpsters during the addition … couldn’t find any old pics, but in this one you can get a glimpse of it.

So we hired Chris to landscape the front. We told him we wanted curves instead of all the straight paths, etc; we wanted a granite patio and we wanted nicer flower beds. He did a sketch which looked great, and we left him to get on with it … and the results are absolutely fabulous!

I’ve put some “during” pictures into the Gallery so go there and have a look, or just see these selected few …
