• My aim in designing the garden was to reflect the swooping design of the new extension and to design planting schemes that would be interesting year round

• In the front, a simple wave of tiered box, with Pennisetum alopecuroides Fairy Tails threaded through it, flows towards the entrance of the restaurant and is in stark contrast with the Cornus controversa Variegata and the billowing borders in the back

• Planted nearby is the evergreen Trachelospermum jasminoides, which fills the air with its scent and rises as a hedge behind a large border planted with herbaceous plants and billowing grasses

• The woodland garden beyond is planted in a sea of Sesleria autumnalis and Geranium Brookside. Herbs are planted for the chefs to use in the restaurant
