Small urban garden spruce - ideas?
Comments (1)you could grow a climber on the bottom of your face of your house? I see the one above the window and perhaps you could continue that theme or maybe use a different plant and interweaving where the two plants meet. If you are going for the luscious look try useing larger waxy leaves, the bonus to waxy leaves is they are generally evergreen too so your garden won't look as twiggy in winter. Rhubarb grow very large leaves (though not waxy or evergreen) that take up lots of space and almost everybody likes a good crumble!...See MoreSmall urban garden spruce - ideas?
Comments (7)Ooh Kate - where to start? You have soo many options but I think first of all you need to define your style. Here's a long table https://www.worm.co.uk/products/romane-tables but it's totally different to https://www.worm.co.uk/products/bellevie-table Most of all though, you need to reduce the clutter and separate out the practical bin area from the entertaining/relaxing space. Decide if you want plants (please do) and personally I think the crazy paving needs to go.

Comments (74)Large gardens are all well and good if have the energy & ability and you can afford the time (or money) for maintenance, but it's not always ideal. The size of garden should be appropriate to the size of house and appropriate for the lifestyle of the owners....See Moresmall roof top garden ideas
Comments (1)You should investigate the strength of your terrace to work out how much weight it can handle- likely you can’t have large planters full of soil and trees so you will have to make weight choices- this means lower weight resin planters, half filled with soil and half filled with polystyrene. Plants that don’t mind less soil and therefore less moisture. You should also be realistic about the location- is it exposed? Will some large leaves plants get burned by wind? Will getting stuff in be inconvenient because of the size of stairwells? Then perhaps you could enlist a designer to help you with the planning and suggest a layout that helps with privacy, and lighting to create a lovely atmosphere. Your plan might well include a water feature to create sound to drown out urban noise, infrared heating, a watering system, and trellis/ fabric dividers/ glass screens or pergolas to create a room feel and help with privacy and subtle lighting that does not affect neighbours but creates a lovely atmosphere for entertaining. Short term I would ensure that the builder provides power and water to the garden area. You can search images for inspiration and gain clarity on what is possible weight wise and establish your budget. You should also have a plan should your garden need to be removed for maintenance to the roof....See MoreBeks -
