A SERENE, YEAR-ROUND RETREAT IN ROTTERDAM
Garden L is a compact, private garden designed for year-round beauty and tranquility. With a rich palette of purples, dynamic seasonal shifts, and strategic contrasts, it offers a peaceful retreat in every season.
A SYMPHONY OF PURPLE
Reflecting the owner’s love for purple, the garden blends complementary shades across the year. From Wisteria floribunda’s soft spring pastels to the deep blues of Hydrangea macrophylla ‘Zorro Blue’ and Rhododendron ‘Marcel Menard,’ it forms a striking yet harmonious sanctuary.
CONTRAST & DEPTH
Golden Kerria japonica enhances purple tones, while evergreens like Nandina domestica provide structure. Autumn’s fiery hues from Euonymus alatus and Callicarpa bodinieri ‘Profusion’ add movement and texture alongside ornamental grasses.
A GARDEN FOR ALL SEASONS
Spring blooms with Prunus x yedoensis and Magnolia ‘Susan,’ while summer thrives with Lavandula and Hydrangea. Acer palmatum ‘Linearilobum’ leads autumn’s display, and in winter, evergreens and grasses maintain visual interest.
BIODIVERSITY & ECOLOGICAL BALANCE
Pollinator-friendly plants like Lavandula and Callicarpa sustain wildlife year-round, blending beauty with ecological function.
FRONT & REAR GARDENS
The Front Garden features Magnolia ‘Susan,’ Acer palmatum, and Cornus kousa, enriched with hydrangeas, rhododendrons, and shade-loving shrubs. The Rear Garden boasts a black bamboo pergola draped in Wisteria, layered plantings for depth, and a multifunctional lawn, creating a serene yet vibrant retreat.
