JpQou’d like to add a low-key
Dc^cue area to your garden, a fire
circlwith rustic brazier set in circular
pam g
creates an intimate, casual
•
space. Add a few friends, extra chairs
and maybe a packet of marshmallows,
then reminisce over a fireside chat.

In miniature
Always wanted a parterre garden in
the style of a French chateaux, but
don’t have the room? How about a mini
version that will fit anywhere? Here,
tiny box hedges enclose clipped grey
santolina and beds of tiny succulents,
with height provided by tightly clipped
small-leafed ivy towers. You could vary
the colour scheme to suit, and choose
any tiny plants massed and trimmed to
keep the tapestry carpet effect. ►
