Oregano
Thyme
Lemon Oregano

We’re finally getting around to adding some more recent designs to our gallery.  Here’s a knot garden that we put in for a client last year along the front of their contemporary house in Cardiff.  We’re pleased how it is establishing. Knot Gardens are great as they are low maintenance (trim once or twice a [...]
