Evelyn Some conifers will be ok but definitely NOT Leylandii or Lawsons they will get out of hand .......mind you if we get year after year of hot weather none of them will like it Rhodos are pretty tolerant providing you have acid soil they simply wont grow in alkaline soils Hydrangeas need lots of water |

My garden is sheltered and does not get much sun. Get the hard landscaping done correctly, and maintaining the garden will be easier. If you have a lawn, make sure that you have edging that can be mowed over. Have some paving where you hang out the laundry. For the planting, think about a smaller number of big things rather than lots of little ones. (Clearly keep it in scale- don't go for Forestry Commission conifers!) -- Anton |
