Traditional Setting

The fairytale image of the English Country Garden is recognised and sought after the world over (it’s particularly popular in Japan). So why not take advantage of actually living here by styling your own traditional English country garden using these top tips.

1. Pop down to your local garden centre for inspiration and advice on plants that will work best in your garden all year round. Consider shrubs, perennials and climbing plants to brighten up the colder months – no traditional English garden is complete without a stunning rose trellis.

2.  Garden accessories make a traditional garden. Jot down some ideas – our garden furniture sets are an elegant and maintainable mainstay for your garden. Think about what style of garden furniture set you want. What will be its primary function – coffee breaks? Dinner parties?  Do you want wicker or teak garden furniture?  Make a cup of tea and settle down with our website or free brochure for a few hours of gentle inspiration.

3. The juxtaposition between dense, almost wild, planting and open grassy areas arguably defines a traditional English garden. Don’t be afraid of mixing flower types, heights etc. A colourful, thoughtfully planted garden will attract the best of British nature.

4. Plan a haven area for your garden furniture set. After all, what use is a garden without the facilities for you to relax and enjoy your hard work. Again, take a peek at our website for ideas. Take time to observe your garden to identify suntraps, as these will usually make the best sites for garden furniture sets.
