We undertook significant groundworks, removing all the existing brick, allowing for soil to be brought back to life. We sowed native wildflowers bringing in a new richness of colour and creating habitats for biodiversity. The wildflowers were left to grow tall to provide privacy from the rest of the garden.
We also built raised beds from reclaimed railway sleepers following a soft curved line around the back wall. In these, different Mediterranean plants such as aloe Vera were planted, perfect for soothing oneβs skin after a long day in the sun. We also planted a large mix of herbs and spices to be picked for accompanying cocktails and juices or used in the kitchen.
