If you would like more detailed help and advice then Bob is available.  He has been designing and landscaping a wide range of gardens, from large to small, for over 40 years.  He is extremely knowledgeable about the best plants to grow in this area of the country and areas further away and he is very happy to give advice.  As Bob is not always at the nursery (he is still landscaping one or two days at present and is always away when we are building our show displays).
