Wild Flower Meadow
The Brief
To convert a large grass area into a safe, very colourful yet low maintenance garden that could be enjoyed by the children & their families of all ages & abilities including wheel chair access.
What We Did
It was a real honour to build this garden for the children & families of the Forget Me Not Children’s garden for whom it is so important. Working alongside the ‘Green Fingers’ charity & a local garden designer we built an extensive network of curved pathways enticing you through lawns & a colourful wildflower meadows as you walk round the garden.
Surprise Features
The paths naturally lead you to surprise features along the way including a bespoke water feature with inserted pebble design & wheel chair access across it. A circular paved seating area gives a meeting place for people to sit together surrounded by a curved rose arch covered in scented roses & tall grasses that rustle & wave in the wind.
5 grass mounds were built where children can play safely & enjoy an elevated view of the garden.
The Perfect Garden
This is the most significant garden we have ever built providing a special place for all who need it.
“Ben Stirling and his team worked tirelessly with Greenfingers Charity to create the wild flower meadow garden at Forget Me Not Children’s Hospice, often dealing with challenging weather conditions, working sensitively within the hospice environment and often alongside groups of volunteers from co-funders HSBC. Some of the design elements were adapted during the process and Ben and his team worked to find a solution with the designer and project manager. The result is a beautiful, naturalistic garden for hospice children and their families to use for play, relaxation and contemplation.”
