Riverside Planting
A design-only project for a property on the banks of the Severn at Upton. The garden flooded reliably twice a year, sometimes more, and the clients wanted a planting plan that would survive being underwater for a fortnight at a time.
We produced a hand-drawn plan and a planting schedule built around riparian species: dogwoods, willows, hostas, gunnera, ligularia, marsh marigold, irises. The plan was implemented by the clients themselves over a winter, and it now copes happily with whatever the river does.
