The Landscape Garden – Nature Idealised

After the scientific revolution in England, Nature could be understood and admired, rather than feared - no longer something wild and diabolical, but part of a rational universe, subject to the laws of Reason. A less formal style was also more in sympathy with the growth of political liberty. Gardens came to imitate and celebrate Nature through the work of designers like Capability Brown.

Co-Hort can create wildlife gardens and pools with naturalistic planting which can bring a little bit of nature into your garden.
