London Gardening Content Hub
You face a particular set of problems when you garden in London. Your neighbours can see straight in, road noise drifts over the fence, and wind funnels between terraces hard enough to flatten anything tall. You also have less space to play with than almost anyone else in the country.
We’ve written these guides for those conditions. You’ll find ideas for narrow gardens and the best plants for small plots, plus practical help with blocking out noise. We cover dealing with wind, snow and garden pests too. If you share your home with a dog or cat, read our guide to building a pet-friendly London garden. If you want more from a small space, look at vertical gardening, ponds and rewilding.
Our team works in London gardens every week, from narrow terraced plots to larger family gardens in the suburbs. Each article draws on those jobs, so you get advice that fits a city garden and a city lifestyle. We’ve also answered the question most London homeowners ask before a big project: whether they need planning permission.
We work from bases in Wandsworth and Twickenham and cover South West London. See the full list of areas we cover.
