Mursley – Simple and Elegant
This project required a simple design to create a garden which is practical and could be easily maintained. From a sloping site, with a poor lawn we created an elegant garden with raised beds and a gravel terrace. A small patio by the house enabled outdoor dining and the planting scheme delivered on our clients’ desire for colour.

This living wall from/by @growingrevolution is starting to 'fill out'. Planted with plenty of evergreen shade tolerant plants, that don't mind a bit of drought, despite the in-built irrigation. Our first 'living wall', having been a sceptic, but it looks great on this project. #jandsscapes #livingwall #plantbox
Good weather for lavender! This image is from a project in Amersham showing a simple lavender edged path by the vegetable garden. #jandsscapes #lavender #veggarden #potager #drought #gardendesignbucks #gardendesign
A nice bit of detail on this ongoing project. Corten steel step from @adezz_gardenproducts some Designclad from londonstone and a neat little light suggested and fitted by Lighting Alfresco. Little bits that form a part of the whole. Planting in the Autumn on what should be a special garden. #jandsscapes #designclad #londonstone #gardenlighting #corten #adezz #gardendetails
The simplest and cheapest of walls......a log stack. This one wraps around a simple area with a fire bowl......marshmallows and pokey stick optional. It fits really nicely in this rustic part of the garden. #jandsscapes #logs #logstack #gardeninspiration #gardening #gardendesignideas #cheapwall
It may only be a pond but you can still dip your feet in on a Summer's day.....and this weather warrants it. Geranium Rozanne in the foreground and blue skies to the rear. A lovely garden we completed this year in Buckinghamshire. #jandsscapes #gardendesign #pond #gardendesignbucks #geranium #geraniumrozanne #gardens #gardeninspiration #footdip
Gardens in bloom. This project in Amersham is enjoying the sun with Rosa 'Kew Gardens' mixed with Phlox, Lavender, Geranium and Nepeta. Nicely transitioning the main garden into the vegetable garden and greenhouse beyond. #jandsscapes #planting #plantingdesign #roses
A recently completed project in Little Chalfont. Pergola, outdoor fire, pond and bridge @millboard_decking . The planting is starting to take shape and the landscaping beginning to soften. Looking lovely and providing plenty of space to entertain in to the evening. #jandsscapes #outdoorfire #pergola #pond #gardendesign #littlechalfont
Salvia Caradonna. Easy to grow and flowers for ages. Nice and upright and not too big. It also works well with so many other flowering perennials and grasses. This picture shows a grouping being nicely lit by the evening sun. #salviacaradonna #perennials #jandsscapes #plantingdesign
A swathe of meadow doing nicely on this project in Buckinghamshire. With its rural location, the meadow nicely blends the garden into the fields beyond. This is a garden with a view but it is an exposed site which the meadow seems to be quite happy with. #jandsscapes #wildflowermeadow #gardenwithaview #gardendesign #meadow
A bit of evening sun glinting off the plants on this project in Buckinghamshire. We completed this lovely garden earlier this year and it has really 'kicked on' in recent months. #jandsscapes #gardens #planting #plantingdesign #dianthus #verbena #salvia #eveningsun
A bit of sculpture can work in a garden. This client picked out a lovely armillary which holds pride of place overlooking the Vale of Aylesbury. Verbena, Anthemis and Birch framing it nicely. #jandsscapes #gardensculpture #verbena #anthemis #betulajacquemontii
We have lots of lovely photos ready to feature having recently gone around some selected gardens with @sarah_greer_photography This one is of a simple water feature on a small project in Wendover, Buckinghamshire. It adds a nice gentle trickle and sits neatly amongst the perennials. #gardenphotography #jandsscapes #gardendesignandbuild #waterfeature #landscaping #gardens #bucksgardendesign
