Amazing garden designs in Canterbury by Ivy and Whyte

As Canterbury garden designers we always love to take on new projects, especially around this area. Canterbury is a city where history, architecture and landscape meet in a uniquely beautiful way – and this character offers wonderful inspiration for garden design. Whether you live in the heart of Canterbury’s historic streets or in the surrounding villages and countryside, the area lends itself to gardens that feel rooted in place while still being personal, contemporary and beautifully functional. As Canterbury garden designers we have noticed that many homeowners are looking for outdoor spaces that feel stylish, low-maintenance and suited to contemporary living – without losing the warmth and character that make Canterbury special.

A lot of the Canterbury area benefits from relatively warm, dry conditions and free-draining soils. This is due to the region’s chalk geology which makes it ideal for a wide range of planting styles such as:
– Drought-tolerant, coastal plant schemes
– Traditional English or cottage plant schemes
– Wildlife-friendly or naturalistic plant schemes
In all of our Canterbury garden designs we choose plants that are best-suited to Kent’s climate and soil conditions to ensure your garden remains beautiful all year-round.
When we work on Canterbury garden design projects, our goal is to create gardens that are:
– Beautiful and distinctive – tailored to each client’s lifestyle
– Practical and long-lasting – built for Canterbury’s environment
– In keeping with loacal character if wanting to – blending planting, materials and layout into a cohesive design.
From initial concepts to final planting, we design outdoor spaces that encourage good everyday living whilsy showcasing the natural beauty of Kent.
