Those Victorian terraces in Penge weren't built with modern lifestyles in mind. Your garden should work around your schedule, not dictate it.

Between Crystal Palace park runs and the commute from Penge East, who has time for constant weeding? Smart plant choices and clever hardscaping turn neglected patches into spaces that practically look after themselves. Gravel pathways replace muddy lawn edges, while drought-tolerant perennials thrive despite Southeast London's unpredictable weather.
Ground-covering plants naturally suppress weeds whilst automated irrigation handles dry spells. Composite decking eliminates annual treatments; ornamental grasses add movement without demanding attention. Strategic mulching locks in moisture, meaning fewer trips with the watering can during those surprise August heatwaves that hit SE20.
Twenty years solving Penge's sloping gardens and clay soil challenges means understanding what actually works here. Local knowledge beats generic solutions every time.
