These are generally gardens with an area of over 1 acre and are often the most challenging but also the most rewarding Gardens.
They require extensive planning and their construction is often undertaken in phases to allow the various elements to be carried out in the appropriate seasons i.e., Tree planting over the Winter months, Shrubs and Perennials in late Spring, and lawning in the Summer.
Dividing the garden into the following specific areas all becomes possible when the space allows:
sunken seating areas
raised patios and paved areas
Screen and retaining walls
Shrub beds with ornamental planting
Specimen tree planting
Native woodland
Wildflower meadows
Lawns
Wildlife corridors
Ponds and water features
Vegetable plots
Orchards
Greenhouse/Polytunnel
Acorn Landscapes have undertaken a number of large gardens and received a Gold Award for the design and construction of a large garden in 2017.
