Brick planter

Clients’ brief:

My clients wanted a planter for their garden to add some interest and focal point from their kitchin window ~ an otherwise plain view to the lawn.

Design response ~

After discussing walling choices, I prepared a design for a bespoke planter that would also provide seating for visiting friends and family. The walling brick has lots of character and combines well with a more contemporary grey coping stone. The devil is in the detail and this eight sided planter was no exception, as the beautifully cut mitred corners show.

The planting scheme brings lots of life and the bees were all over the chives when I visited in June. Clients and grandchildren are loving their new planter as the little ones are enjoying running around the top.

This beautiful planter was skillfully made by Brad and Will at Blue Rose Landscapes.
