Samples of some of the projects developed by Casa Verde Landscaping Limited

Img59.jpg  Lavender Walk
Having built a fabulous house in a beautiful rural area, it was time to change the front garden from a plain all lawned area into a garden that would compliment the house and fit in with the village environment.

  Wining & Dining Garden
From a garden that was never used our clients now have a garden full of interesting features with space to expand their interest of plants and gardening without too much hard work.

Img69.jpg  Meditation Garden
From a completely overgrown garden, our clients can now fully utilise their garden and they have given pride of place to their God, Buddha, who has been strategically placed so it can be viewed from anywhere in the garden and from the living room.  Meditation is now practiced either outside or inside.

Img70.jpg  The Drive
Our clients wanted to make better use of their front garden – they had lots of space yet not enough to park their cars. 
We gave them plenty of space for existing cars and more. Utilising existing stone and repositioning the wall we recreated the different levels so as not to leave it flat and boring.  The paving slabs have been laid in a random form, punctuated with stone setts; the walls and paving blend together to keep the look uniform..

Creating and re-shaping flowerbeds, adding plants, shrubs, structures, statues, pots etc. gives this garden a new feel every year, and there is still space and scope for further expansion and enhancements..

Due to the lack of interesting features, this garden blended into the fields beyond.  A change of central fountain (solid marble) certainly stopped the eye from wondering beyond it.

Img28.gif  Family Garden
This is a brand new house on a new development. The request from our clients was to build a garden suitable for the whole family; a play area for the children, entertaining area for the adults yet sufficient garden area for the gardener within the family.

  The Harbour
This is the result of overcoming a major problem with a flooded garden. The client wanted a low maintenance, sunken garden, but due to the flooding that could not be achieved unless an innovative drainage system could be installed.
The problem was overcome and our ex Royal Navy Sgnt Major was delighted with the nautical image in his own back yard.


  Hillside Stream
The garden is on an extremely steep hill and this was taken advantage of for the design.  The result is a stream running from the top of the slope down the centre of the garden into a reservoir.  The water flows over rocks that filter it to keep it clean.  A serpentine gravel path runs from ground level to the top where there is a timber decked patio.  From this high level it enables the client to see a new perspective of their house and new garden and where they relax listening to the sound of the stream flowing over the rocks. 


Img22.jpg  Palm Tree
This garden was designed for a businessman who wanted a tropical garden suitable for entertainment.  This was accomplished with tropical features using palms and exotic plants that can withstand the British climate.  Pond and waterfall compliment the planting and the round flagged patio with gravelled area gave a low maintenance garden that is ideal for its purpose.


  Party Garden
Our client, a very busy professional lady required a garden in which she could entertain her clients, friends and family in a secure environment.  The planting is dramatic and the noise by walking on the gravel path also acts as a deterrent to unwanted visitors.  There is also a fence surrounding the garden for added security.  The decking is the focal point for guests.


  Play Garden
The brief for this garden, although a very small garden, was to incorporate a play area for the children, patio area for the adults to relax yet be able to supervise the children and also have a Spanish influence.


  Retreat
This client is a keen gardener but with limited time available.  He wants to be able to come home from work and either sit and enjoy the plants and wildlife or carry out a little gardening work.  The water feature attracts birds and wildlife while the choice of plants give colour, texture and interest throughout the year.


  Romans
This garden being 80m long and 25m wide was a challenge.  The approach was to create a connecting walkway from the house to the end of the garden.  The customer is Italian and he wanted to create a little bit of his home country in his large garden. The influence of a Roman Garden came from the trees standing on the left; these stood erect like columns, and were in the style of  “Via Appia” in Rome.


  Woodland
The main requirement for the design of this garden was to enable the clients who have limited mobility, to easily reach the flower beds so that they can carry out their own gardening.  This was accomplished by creating raised borders using local materials.
The centrepiece of the lawn is a sandstone circle that matches the walkway around the lawn.  The unusual shape of the lawn adds to the overall interest of the garden.
