As the worlds worst Gardener, yes I killed my green thumb years ago...I have been asked to design the garden for one of my building design projects...even though I find this a greater challenge (house design is so much easier) I love that they have enough trust in me to design a beautiful garden ....
have a wonderful weekend ...I'm off to find my Australian Garden Index Book

1. & 2. unfortunately I do not know were these beautiful photos have come from. If you do I would love to link them to the artist...
I love simple and elegant too, Cate and these are perfect. Very stylish. What a great project for you. XXXX
ReplyDeleteyou will certainly design something fabulous... i know the butterflies in the stomach feeling though... but challenge is so good for us... it makes us better! xx
ReplyDeleteHey - no one said you had to plant and look after what you design! We all believe in you. Specially if it's along the lines of your photos :-)
ReplyDeleteI agree with Ange Cate - someone else can do the looking after! And I'm sure you'll do a beautiful job with the design. xx
ReplyDeletelove the simplicity of the photos. good luck with your project....treat it like a room design...you'll do fine!

I love formal, elegant designs in gardens, but that's not always what people want when I am asked to help them with their gardens. My own garden is formal AND edible (edible landscaping).
ReplyDeleteDesigning garden is so much fun!
Such pretty images ... I can almost hear the birds and smell the newly-mown grass! I'm new to your fab blog ... thanks!
ReplyDeleteI miss your posts. Where are you??
ReplyDeleteI am still waiting to see the pictures of your kitchen.
ReplyDeleteI think you are divine...and I am so happy to have found your blog.
ReplyDeleteOh Cate - I love, love, LOVE your blog. Have just stumbled upon you and SO delighted that I did. Simple and elegant is the way forward. Love the pics. I was lucky enough to inherit a beautifully simple and elegant garden when I moved house recently, and I'm trying my best not to destroy it as I'm no gardener myself either! I like to joke that my skill lies in knowing a lovely one when I see it!
ReplyDeleteYour blog is amazing I love it!
