Developing a six-acre garden...
Not every garden need be transformed overnight, though having an overall plan can prevent duplication and time-wasting ventures. A large garden, such as this six-acre Gloucestershire garden has been developed in stages with planting strengthened or completely overhauled, beds and borders deepened and reshaped to allow for greater succession of plant interest, and features such as the pond highlighted and a small sheltered sanctuary created. All this is tempered with the need to balance development of a garden with realistic available maintenance.
