CITY COTTAGE STYLE GARDEN
On the east facing side of the garden, an abundant display of woodland planting thrives in the shade beneath a series of five tall cylindrical Italian terracotta pots which add formality along the brick path leading towards the Summerhouse. "Balls" of Skimmia Japonica add structure and winter colour to each pot, whilst below at ground level, evergreen Ferns, Hellebores and Snowdrops (Galanthus) do their magic. Mounds of Soleirolia (Mind-your-own-business); a vigorous creeping groundcover, softens the hard lines of the brick path by spilling over and blurring the edges...finding it's way into cracks within the brick paving.
