The Patio
The Patio benefits from being totally open to the south and surrounded on three sides by the house and The Terrace beds. It all makes for a great sunny spot, sheltered and private – the perfect location to sit and relax or share a meal with friends and family. Pizza oven and barbecue are the outdoor cooking options with some furniture made from old pallets.
Each year for the last two years I’ve ordered the patio pot plants from the brilliant D.T.Brown seeds. Most arrive in late April in packs of 40 plug plants (usually geraniums, lobelia, petunias and begonias) which I pot on and keep 3-4 weeks undercover to get stronger.
They then get planted out into the selection of slightly quirky terracotta pots, troughs, old chimney pots and various odd containers and wall baskets to provide summer-long colour.
