Doesn't this picture make you feel happy ! It was taken in late January after being in bloom for a few weeks and expected to continue to the end of March if not a bit later. My client had a Cedar tree with scrappy undergrowth in the main lawn. I proposed clearing all the mess out and carpet planting with these Cyclamen. We have also mixed in autumn flowering Cyclamen to give a second flush in October and November ! Adam Hodge

Design ideas for a medium sized contemporary driveway full sun garden in Milan with gravel.

Paying homage to the foundry and its history we have implemented lots of wonderful weathering corten steel in strong geometric wedges. Someone said 'its a bit rusty', we hope you like it, its a rich and developing patina that gets warmer in colour with age and works contextually with the original use of the building. We have designed a garden for a victorian foundry in Walsingham in North Norfolk converted into holiday cottages in the last decade. The foundry originally founded in 1809, making iron castings for farming industry, war casualties ended the male line and so in 1918 it was sold to the Wright family and they continued to trade until 1932, the depression caused its closure. In 1938 it was purchased by the Barnhams who made agricultural implements, pumps, firebowls, backplates, stokers, grates and ornamental fire baskets............ and so we have paid homage to the foundry and its history and implemented lots of wonderful weathering steel. The planting palette inlcudes large leafy hostas, ferns, grasses, hydrangeas and a mix of purple and yellow with a sprinkling of orange perennials.

This lovely 'Tectona' teak wooden path light has an elegant and very natural look. Further traditional charm is added to this smooth bollard with a polished brass mounting base and six polished brass louvers surrounding the white polycarbonate diffuser. The Tectona is 700mm tall with an 80mm diameter, and looks impressive in any setting.
