Restored walled garden for Landscape Designer, Philippa Lambert

Her Victorian walled garden along with a two acre lake, were part of an intriguing frost-free micro-climate within the ‘Undercliffs’ of the Island, meaning sub-tropical plants could flourish in the area. Philippa had to take her time with the project and reintroduce the elements slowly. After she decided an Alitex lean-to greenhouse was the perfect instalment, it took two years to create the perfect walled garden. Cold frames were created along with a potting shed and some access paths. The long central vista, flanked by flowers on either side, was terminated in spectacular style by the 30 foot greenhouse painted a soft white, completed with cold frames either side of the door.
