Transforming a multi-level woodland garden involved adding a stone pathway.
This multi-level, woodland garden had complete privacy, but too little sun and unfriendly slopes.
Garden makeover process An arborist was called to assess the trees – several were removed, many were crown-thinned or rearranged and the upper deck now has filtered sunlight.
Ruth Olde’s team from Blasig Landscape Design & Construction Ltd. added dry-stacked basalt walls and Old Country Stone pavers to create a cosy level area – just for two – nestled against the upper deck. Steps were added to level the slope and a meandering pathway now leads to the playhouse and vegetable patch, while an arbour acts as the doorway to the lower garden – a cooling, calming forest and natural stream.
