Back from an incredible 2 weeks backpacking in Turkey.

Saw some incredible sights from the vast and wonderful landscapes of Cappadoccia, the lush and tropical 'Turquoise Coast' and the hustle and bustle of Istanbul.

The sun and rain back home created my own little urban jungle. Having spent the weekend weeding, mowing and re-potting I'm ready to jump back on the work wagon again !

Straight lines or curves in the garden ?

It's a question I always ask my clients and one they are generally unsure how to answer as they think there is a right or wrong answer.

Straight lines tend to convey a more modern, contemporary and formal look whereas curves, more naturalistic and soft. Straight lines are generally easier to construct hence more cost effective and they make more efficient use of space whereas curves need a little more space to flow and can be used to hide features creating a sense of intrigue.

But, on the whole I tell my clients to go with what they prefer, what feels right to them and their sense of aethestic. As the designer it is up to me to create a garden that fits them and their budget; to reflect their personality and sense of practicality.

Things are incredibly busy right now both at my computer and out on site.

Not only am I working on some lovely new designs but work is ongoing for some of those gardens I designed last year. They are all at various stages of implementation and I love going to visit, seeing how each is progressing.

Work started on a new project this week so the clients are enjoying a slightly more brown garden than usual. Once spray painted out we can start to see how the garden is going to fit the garden in reality.

Once the paving is laid things are starting to take shape but it's all still a bit messy at this stage and there is a distinct lack of softness and greenery.

Once its ready for planting, the exicting bit happens and a new garden transforms into something much more three dimensional and tactile. This is my favourite bit as I get to be hands on in the soil !

And the final sign off when it all comes together and my client can start to enjoy and relax in their new garden.

'Jo has redesigned all the borders and planted them with colours, shapes and sizes that finally look right together and not just an erratic mix that looked chaotic. We got Jo to do the planting as well as design which was a sheer joy to see the garden transformed and not have to do the back breaking work ourselves. Jo worked incredibly hard and I can’t thank her enough'

I am so grateful to receive such wonderful reviews from my clients. I love the fact that I have a job that makes people happy ....

There has been so much going on at Plan A Head Gardens the last couple of months; Designs, Planting Plans and the implementation of landscaping carried out in collaboration with some amazing landscapers.

I'm really excited to be a position where I will soon be able to share some of the amazing projects I have been working on with you !

My own little nursery of gorgeous plants all waiting to be planted in a clients garden...

As well as providing Planting Plans, I can supply plants at trade prices and take all the hard work out of planting up for you.

A beautiful garden with minimal effort....

Just had a few days in London and found this little gem in the heart of the Westminster district.

If you're in the city and need a little oasis of calm for a few hours then I can thoroughly recommend The Onion Garden Cafe for a cuppa or a glass of wine

Love colour but are fearful of going bright and bold in your garden ?

Don't be !

Bright coloured walls, cushions, pots and accessories can bring a vibrancy and happiness to your garden that plants alone cannot achieve with an added bonus being that the colour remains all year round. Even on a dull, grey day a look outside at a mediterranean yellow wall is guaranteed to make you smile (as I know from personal experience !)

Working with colour in such an extravagant way can be slightly daunting though. Get it wrong and it can create the opposite effect of the intended.

Planting needs to compliment not clash so additional thought also needs to go into your plant scheme. The planting needs to be sympathetic to the dominant wall colour otherwise the overall feel can be too busy rather than an overall feel of calm.

If you want to inject colour into your garden but don't know where to start then give me a call to discuss further....

A bit of blue sky at the beginning of the week makes everyone that little bit brighter and happier.

My Clematis Armandii is full of Apple Blossom blooms ready to burst, the dogs are out sunning themselves and Mr Heron paid us a visit. The garden is beckoning us to enjoy the delights of being outdoors but is yours fit for purpose ?

If you need help to get your garden summer ready then Plan A Head Garden Design is here to help ....

Love these Crocus 'Dorothy' that were the top layer of this years bulb lasagne. Could have done with lots more in there though.

They were co-ordinated with my yellow wall to bring some early colour and sunshine to an otherwise gloomy February.
