Time’s tapestry

Tucked away in the heart of busy west London is a tiny but enchanting garden full of hidden corners, playful elements and unusual woodland plants

This north-facing plot has been smartly redesigned for every day, family living

In just 8x4m, John Tordoff and Maurice Reeve have transformed their shady Cambridge courtyard into a vibrant, ever-changing stage set

This historic Cumbrian garden blends formal design with playful planting

When garden designers and skilled artisans come together, it results in imaginative spaces that are truly one of a kind

I have previously turned a blind eye to parts of my garden hidden from general view. There is so much to do and anything out of sight (although not out of mind) is not at the top of my priority list.
