Hi I am starting a garden in a new build house, the main part of the garden measures approx 11M deep X 17M long. This garden is in a windy seaside location, I have currently laid the whole garden to lawn with the intention of "carving it up" with some sort of design next spring. Not what you are asking i know, bur when you come to carve it up: Design the shape of the lawn and plant the bits that are left, nit designt the shape of the beds. Reason? The only shape you will see when all is planted is the open space of the lawn the bed shapes re irrelevant. pk |

Part of the objective is to get some nice views from the large lounge patio doors, screening garage, shed etc. Paul |
