I have designed many gardens throughout Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire and Northamptonshire. Whether they have been contemporary gardens like the ones in Milton Keynes or traditional ones like the ones behind the Victorian houses in Bedford the planting design principles remain the same.

This talk discusses the importance of structure in the planting and how to achieve year-round interest so if you have ever envied the gardens in magazines, this talk may be for your group.

About Maria Greenhill

Based in Milton Keynes, I give talks and run workshops in North Buckinghamshire, Bedfordshire and Northamptonshire. I am a qualified garden designer and talk about the tricks of the trade. I am passionate about History. I have a History degree and also volunteer at the local museum so my talks are well researched and informative. My other big interest is the environment and organic living. I have an aromatherapy qualification and enjoy sharing my experience of how to use essential oils. I am a qualified teacher and a WI approved speaker.
