Here is a project that we worked on for a client in Edinburgh.
- Raised beds, concrete block rendered and painted white. the planting is Photinia Red Robin , which when mature will form a delightful low maintenace hedge screening the decking from the road.
- Timber decking -redwood pine. Note the l.e.d lighting to the raised beds to shine across decking surface at night
- Timber steps leading up to decking area with door to side to access under deck storage area, The step treads have graphite inlays to make them non-slip
- Photinia Red Robin forms a pleasing hedge as the newly formed leaves are red and the mature leaves are green. It is easily maintained like privet, and offers a great alternative to standard hedging
- The picture above left shows an example of a mature Photinia Red Robin hedge forming dense and compact foliage giving excellent screening for privacy and above right caption showing the red emergent immature leaf which turns green after a month or so.
o- Rendered concrete raised beds offer a great altenative to stone. They cost less, are durable , and bring a contemporary aesthetic to garden designs.
