New-build gardens across the South West
The South West's geology is famously varied: limestone around Bath and Bristol, red sandstone in Devon, slate and shale around Plymouth, heavy clay in the Severn vale and around Swindon. Hilly towns mean lots of sloping and terraced gardens.
A mild, Atlantic climate gives one of the longest laying seasons in the country.
How conditions change across the region
-
Bristol and Bath
Hills, terraces and mixed soils from limestone to clay.
-
Devon
Stony red soils around Exeter and thin, stony ground over slate near Plymouth.
-
Wiltshire and Gloucestershire
Heavy clay plots on flatter ground, some low-lying.
When to lay turf
Mild weather means turf can be laid for much of the year when the ground is workable; spring and autumn are the easiest.
