Kensington Town House

We had a wonderful opportunity to create an unusual planting in the heart of London. Working with our client we decided to create a contrast between her tall townhouse in Kensington Square, and a soft slightly wild planting design. Within lead planters we used Stipa grass with chocolate Cosmos and dark purple Heuchera, it had the feel of a meadow but with more of an edge! We then inter-planted Queen of the Night Tulips for Spring interest. In other areas, we installed Buxus ball topiary of differing sizes to give a cloud effect. We also used good quality artificial Buxus in bespoke planters in a really dark and shady rear terrace.
