Award Winning Garden in Moscow
Award Winning Garden in Moscow
An award winning garden created for a Russian client who wanted an English traditional style of garden for her dacha in the Moscow region. Awarded the best International garden by the Society of Garden Designers in 2013, along with awards from the USA and Russian Landscape Associations. The garden comprises lots of different ‘rooms’ as one strolls around the site. A rose garden leads to a glasshouse and parterre. Scree gardens, tree lined avenue, herbaceous borders, orchard, and a rococo grove all stand alone as gardens to rest and relax in. The sloping, sandy site runs down to a lake and recent additions include a boathouse and jetties, and streams and waterside planting. All this in a climate that has extreme deep-frozen winters and short but very hot summers.
