Hertfordshire

Where the van actually goes.

Each page is the ground in that town, and the photographs if a job there has already been published. The address is The Garden Centre, Birchall Lane, Hertford.

Hertfordshire

Elstree

Gardens on the hill, towards the studios and the road into Borehamwood.

Hertfordshire

Borehamwood

The published drive is Mr Gorden’s sandstone.

Hertfordshire

Radlett

Longer plots and steep entrances. The Kharne drive is the published hill.

Potters Bar

Older gardens that have closed in. The Arlington patio is the local pair of photographs.

Bushey

On the way to Watford. Clay, older roads, and edges before extra planting.

Hertfordshire

Shenley

Village plots between Radlett and London Colney: lane hedges and the odd side courtyard.

Hertfordshire

Watford

Smaller town gardens west of Bushey. Shared access, and patios that have to do several jobs.

Hertfordshire

London Colney

Lane gardens and later estates sit side by side, close to the Colne.

Hertfordshire

St Albans

Three published gardens: Guilder, Mason and Readshaw. One of them is still on a monthly visit.

Harpenden

Larger, leafier plots. The first call is often a tree, and the patio follows.

Hertfordshire

Hatfield

Old Hatfield and the new town want different work. Grounds rounds cover both.

Hertfordshire

Welwyn Garden City

A town planned around its gardens. Most visits are a simpler layout and trees kept in scale.

Hertfordshire

Hemel Hempstead

New-town drives and older lanes. The Kemptons’ failing tarmac is the published driveway.

Hertfordshire

Hertford

The practice address is here. Mrs Antony’s plot went from rough ground to lawn, paving and gravel.

Stevenage

Front gardens seen on every arrival. Mrs Marshall’s is the published one.
