City garden
This fairly large city garden was initially laid out by a keen gardener who put many hours into its upkeep. It now required a redesign of the planting that would keep the sense of abundance and a changing succession of interesting plants all year while bringing the maintenance requirement right down. It needed to be that slightly elusive thing, a no water garden on clay soil with perennials that mostly look after themselves.
