Landscape designer Franchesca Watson’s tips on how to make your garden work for you
-
KEEP IT SIMPLE
Think hard about anything that requires extra effort. Don’t throw it all out but limit the elements that need more attention, such as mixed borders of perennials. Keep these elements only in high-impact areas – maybe close to the house and terrace. Harden your heart and simplify the rest.
