I usually get asked about planting lists from my award-winning show gardens, which I am always happy to share. I designed this planting scheme for the RHS Tatton Flower Show in 2016, which won a silver medal. The garden was called From Hall to Home,and was inspired by Capability Brown.
This planting scheme uses naturalistic meadow planting, to create an ultra-low maintenance garden for people who want to spend their time enjoying the outdoors and not weeding their flower beds.
This type of planting scheme mimics a natural outdoor meadow scheme, with grasses and perennials. There is no soil on show so weeds are naturally suppressed, and there are no annuals that need replacing the next year.
