Earlsfield's mix of period properties and newer developments creates fascinating planting opportunities. Behind those terraced houses on Garratt Lane, gardens often surprise with their depth. Smart plant selection maximises these spaces whilst respecting the architectural character. Clay soil dominates much of SW18, requiring specific preparation techniques for successful establishment.
Plant selection considers mature sizing, seasonal interest, and maintenance requirements specific to your lifestyle. Root barriers protect Victorian foundations whilst allowing ambitious schemes. Soil improvement addresses localised drainage issues common between Magdalen Road and Burntwood Lane. Each planting position accounts for sun patterns created by neighbouring properties and that persistent southwest wind funnelling up from Tooting.
Twenty years cultivating Earlsfield gardens builds invaluable local knowledge. Every street presents unique microclimates and soil variations that influence planting success.
