The first garden of my own

When I first moved to Guanock, the five-acre site was a field, completely without structure or planting. Over 10 years, I created a formal garden which included herbaceous, rose and knot gardens, a walled kitchen garden and a wilderness. Guanock was a very important place for me, it enabled me to explore my design ideas and be a hands-on gardener. Now I have moved to Allt-y-bela, which is a complete change of landscape and you can see in the pictures in my journal and portfolio that I have to develop the garden in a very different way. It is always a continual process of learning and experimenting.
