Front gardens: how to create the ultimate first impression

[Mohamed]

"More is more" is clearly the message in this cottage front garden overflowing with a multicoloured mix of annuals and perennials. But it’s more than just a random jumble. Look closely and you’ll notice the careful symmetry in the beds on either side of the path, from the marguerite daisies, rudbeckias, larkspur and cornflowers in the foreground to the tall topiary spirals rising from a froth of petunias and pelargoniums in pots outside the door. The pathway and borders are framed by a graceful wirework arch up which a passionflower, various clematis, flame-red Eccremocarpus scaber and trailing nasturtiums are climbing. The colour combinations may not be subtle, particularly those of the flowers – fuchsias, pelargoniums, petunias and lobelia, to name but a few – cascading from the hanging basket in the background. But such exuberance works well against a plain white backdrop – even a painted front door would spoil the effect – and includes a lot of white to lighten the mix. Furthermore, the oversized topiary spirals are a welcome quirky touch, adding a note of contemporary eccentricity.
