“At night, the lights of the M1 and M25 encircle us like a bright necklace of sodium and in the hedge at the bottom of the garden you are as likely to encounter an abandoned fridge or cluster of empty beer cans as you are a foraging badger. But despite the noise and the dumping it remains a remarkable enclave of beauty, hanging on by a thread.”

Recognized Style: Ability to mix the prairie style with traditional English for a common theme of juxtaposition and contrast. Tom’s style is loose allowing garden inhabitants to follow their own path and gaze compared to forcing focal points.

Once it is set, a weed barrier is placed over the stone to prevent any vegetation growth through the rock and into the artificial surface.

continual upkeep and maintenance.
