Victorian terraces around Brixton Water Lane often hide surprising depths of garden space behind modest facades. Creating layered flower beds here means working with everything from heavy London clay to builders' rubble from decades past. Local gardeners know these challenges well – particularly in those narrow strips between boundary walls where nothing seems to thrive.
Soil preparation forms the foundation of any successful planting scheme. Deep cultivation breaks through compacted layers whilst organic matter transforms hostile ground into fertile beds. Plant selection considers not just aesthetics but also pollution tolerance – essential near busy roads like Brixton Hill. Structural plants establish framework; seasonal varieties add evolving interest throughout the year.
Twenty years nurturing gardens across South London brings invaluable knowledge of what actually flourishes here. Every plot between Coldharbour Lane and Tulse Hill has taught us something new about creating beauty in challenging urban conditions.
