A Fresh Start Harrogate Show Garden 2017 | Year of Greenery

We’re back and we’re getting FRESH!

Paxman Landscapes Fresh Start Harrogate Show Garden 2017

2016 is SO last year (and over, thankfully!). 2017 is one of new beginnings. This year’s Paxman Landscapes Harrogate Show Garden creation reflects and embraces a truly fresh start.  It will encompass the beauty of outdoor living, taking a deep breath and inhaling all that is clean, good and healthy in the natural environment.

Pantone Colour of the Year….GREENERY

The world of design holds its breath each year for the announcement of the Pantone Colour of the Year 2017 – the pinnacle of design trends which will inspire and pique interest in fashion, décor, design and creativity. And this year is Greenery…reflected perfectly by the design, hues and essence of our Fresh Start Garden this year.

Blue-greens and aquamarines

With the soft and hard landscaping elements mimicking the traits of the Pantone colour wheel, the yellow-greens of the design are warm whilst the blue-greens and aquamarines are more fluid and cool. This is reflected in the plant choice, with olive foliage, flower and form duplicated in shrub, herbaceous, alpine and ornamental tree selection.  A sea of herbs provides a striking carpet contrast to the water, bark and paved elements.  The design pays tribute to all that is clean, wholesome and healthy in the natural environment. A fresh and airy feel, the water cascading through its heart with clear, sleek lines and flowers to attract insects and garden visitors alike.
