There is so much planning and consideration that goes into planting. The clients taste, the style of property, the aspect and the soil type all need to be factored in to ensure that the right planting is being installed for the space.

Here at Jessica Sharman Garden a design, a site analysis and meeting with the client takes place before anything else.

The planting mood is then decided before a planting scheme is worked up to be signed off by the homeowner, ensuring that the client is getting what they envisioned, if not a much more!

A garden should grow and evolve through not only the months but over years, making it an excellent long term investment for enjoyment into the future.

This project consisted of a connecting terrace design, between the existing deck and pavilion.

A design was produced, along with a lighting plan and planting scheme which was then installed by a group of skilled tradesmen.

Considered lighting allows the customer to use this beautiful outdoor space into the evenings.

The redesign of the outdoor terrace at Botanic Road Kitchen in Churchtown.

Our client wanted a total refresh for their outdoor space, having had a large gazebo up since 2020.

We used mirrors and climbing evergreen Jasmine to give that classic Mediterranean outdoor courtyard effect, providing a sense of extended space and design interest.

A row of tall lollipop Bay trees within terracotta pots were nestled between Hydrangea ‘Annabel’ and low level pots holding clipped yew domes.

A large Wisteria was fixed to the exterior wall using wire supports for longevity and hanging baskets to both the front and rear of the property.

Lots of vertical planting to protect the importance of standing space for the customers, especially when the sun is shining !

A large terrace designed for a beautiful family home.

The idea was to have a seamless finish between the terrace and the planting with crafted bullnose edge steps leading to a large lawn and a pathway at the lower level also.

Suitable and stylish lighting was also crucial to ensure that the family were able to use the terrace into the evenings, also creating a stunning view through those large sliding doors to the rear of the property.

The planters have now been filled with fabulous planting and furniture added to the terrace in time for summer.
