Haberdashers’ Aske’s School, Elstree, Hertfordshire

We don’t just cater for residential gardens – find out more about the part we’ve played in reinvigorating gardens in schools and colleges.

We were delighted to be invited to redesign a neglected area of the school grounds directly overlooked by the headmaster’s office.

A newly crafted sundial was flanked by four formal beds. These were finished with low box edging in keeping with the original curved brick walls and imposing school building. Tall grasses, and colourful Alliums and Tulips brought a splash of colour and gave a modern feel to the essentially formal garden.
