NEW: Garden Design Corner

Come and meet local Suffolk Garden Designer Penelope Walker and get some advice on your garden project on Monday 6th April 2026.

To get the most out of your design session, we would recommend that you bring images of your garden and if you have a rough idea of size that’s useful too.

Don’t worry if you forget or don’t get time to measure up, Penelope will still be happy to have a chat about your garden.

Take photos of anything that you particularly want to ask about.

This is a design focused clinic, whilst we’re happy also to help with any plant queries, we’re mainly here to help you with design conundrums:

• Need better screening?
• Want more year round interest?
• Don’t know how to assess your soil?
• Think your soil is too sandy or too heavy?
• Looking for a few simple ideas to change the look and feel of your garden?
• Inherited a new garden and don’t know where to start?
• Perhaps you’re overwhelmed by all the paving choices for your new patio.
• Perhaps you’ve been in the same garden for 20 years and can’t see the wood for the trees.
• Want to demystify what ‘moist be well drained’ actually means?
• Tired of being wow’ed at the garden centre, spending a small fortune then getting home and feeling.
• somehow underwhelmed with what you’ve done but don’t know where you’ve gone wrong?
• Want to make your inherited garden more contemporary?

Penelope can help!
