Finally, my garden is suitable for wildlife AND people. For too long now, it had tipped over the fine line from wildlife friendly and into chaos. Working as a gardener means I rarely have time for my own space. But with the help of my wonderful family and fabulous team at Nectar Gardens we have managed to pull it back from the brink and created this charming oasis with criss-crossing paths of different recycled materials. They intersect mixed planting beds of ornamental grasses, flowering shrubs and herbaceous perennials. I avoided using cement (due to the high carbon footprint) which has resulted in a rustic, character-full look. In time MYOB, Thymus and other 'steppable' plants will fill the deliberate cracks. There is still soooo much to do but today, I am enjoying my little piece of heaven in a South West corner of London.
