Expert Review
North-West Facing Orientation
Your garden enjoys afternoon and evening sunlight, which is perfect for creating a relaxing and inviting atmosphere. However, the left border remains shady, requiring plants that thrive in lower light conditions.
Loamy and Clayey Soil
Your garden soil is loamy and clayey with impeded drainage and low fertility. This means we'll select hardy plants that can tolerate these conditions and suggest ways to improve soil health over time.
Square Shape
The medium-sized, square layout of your garden provides a versatile canvas. We can create defined zones for relaxation, play, and gardening, making the most of the available space.
Shady Problem Area:
The left border of your garden is a problem area due to constant shade. We'll focus on shade-tolerant plants that will bring life and vibrancy to this part of your garden, ensuring it becomes an attractive feature.
Jacqueline's Garden Vision
-
Relaxation and Unwinding
You envision a serene and harmonious garden where you can relax and unwind, enjoying a peaceful escape from daily life.
-
Multi-Purpose and Safe for Children
Your goal is to create a multi-purpose space that’s safe for children to play, blending traditional and natural styles to make it both functional and aesthetically pleasing.
-
Colour Preferences
You prefer a calming color palette of blues, purples, and greens, creating a garden that’s visually soothing and in harmony with nature.
How to create your traditional garden
Transform your medium-sized, north-west facing garden by focusing on the left border, blending classic design with functional use of space. Introduce graceful borders to create cozy zones optimised for relaxation and enjoyment, perfect for creating a structured yet inviting environment.
Take advantage of the north-west facing orientation to make the most of the afternoon and evening sunlight, while addressing the shady left border. We’ll select plants that thrive in these unique lighting conditions to ensure a lush, vibrant garden.
By incorporating a mix of taller elements and shade-tolerant plants, we can turn the left border into a visually appealing and harmonious part of your garden. This approach will enhance the beauty and functionality of the space, making it both practical and relaxing.
This design ensures every part of your garden is utilised effectively, turning your outdoor area into a charming, practical extension of your home. Let’s make this left border a delightful retreat where you can relax, unwind, and enjoy nature.
Create a cozy, well-defined space
Tip: Use well-defined, curved borders to create a distinct and cozy zone in the oval area. Incorporate symmetrical designs and classic garden features like neatly trimmed hedges and formal pathways.
Why: These elements add structure and organisation to your garden, creating a traditional, elegant feel that is both welcoming and intimate.
Incorporate classic garden elements
Tip: Integrate traditional features such as topiary, classical statuary, and wrought iron accents to enhance the traditional aesthetic.
Why: These timeless elements contribute to a cohesive traditional style, adding character and charm to your garden.
Address shadier spots with shade-tolerant plants
Tip: For less sunny spots within the oval area, incorporate traditional shade-tolerant plants and taller elements to create lush, green spaces.
Why: This turns potential problem areas into attractive features, ensuring that every part of the oval garden is utilised effectively and contributes to the overall aesthetic and functionality with a traditional charm.
Expert Tips: add personal touches
-
Try adding personalised garden art
Tip: Incorporate garden art pieces like handmade sculptures, painted rocks, or custom signs that reflect your personality and style. Why: Personalised garden art adds a unique touch to your natural garden, making it truly your own. These artistic elements can tell your story, evoke emotions, and enhance the visual appeal of your garden, making it a more inviting and personal space.
-
Create intimate seating areas
Tip: Design cozy seating nooks with natural materials like wooden benches or stone seating, surrounded by lush plantings and shaded by trees or tall shrubs. Why: Intimate seating areas provide a perfect spot for relaxation and contemplation, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the tranquility of your natural garden. These personalised spaces invite you to unwind and enjoy the beauty of your surroundings in comfort and peace.
-
Add wildlife-friendly features
Tip: Integrate elements such as bird feeders, butterfly houses, and small water features to attract and support local wildlife. Why: Adding wildlife-friendly features not only enhances the ecological value of your garden but also brings dynamic and engaging elements to your outdoor space. Watching birds, butterflies, and other wildlife can provide endless enjoyment and a deeper connection to nature, making your garden feel more alive and vibrant.

So impressed with this company. I ordered a gift for a family member as my uncle had passed away. When going through the checkout I realised that my aunts name was on the billing receipt. Little Eden sorted the problem and dealt with it with great kindness.

Really good quality packaging and plant. Bit different to the normal flowers but loved it as it’ll last a lot longer as a gift. Handwritten note was nice. Website was easy too.
2 May 2023
Delivered quicker than expected and my brother loved his gift! Thank you so much!

With this app, I don't even need a developer. It also saves me a lot of design time. I officially launched my brand today and I wanted to thank this app for being a huge part of this journey.
