Formal Courtyard

Farmhouse Landscape

This garden is a highly structured evergreen courtyard that offers two entertaining spaces. The wrought iron table is for more formal lunches or evening dinners in the summer months. The second entertaining space is bench seating to enjoy a morning or afternoon coffee. The key focal point is a centrally located crabapple (malus ioensis 'Plena' that is underplanted with a clipped buxus hedge. The back wall features an evergreen jasmine climber that is trained into a diamond pattern by growing on stainless steel wires fixed to the brick wall. An old cast iron bathtub was utilised to become a water feature by repainting it black and installing a central water bubbler under the surface of the water. The granite steppers lead you through this courtyard and connect both ends to a centrally paved casual area with bench seating
