The entries and, ultimately, the winners point the way to future landscape gardening trends.<\/p>\n<p>Here are the trends we see emerging both from the gardens shortlisted for the APL Awards 2019 and elsewhere:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Maximising small spaces<\/strong><br \/>\nThe shortlist suggests that the trend to create beautiful gardens and landscapes in even the smallest of spaces continues. Among the shortlisted projects are The Pocket Courtyard and Urban Flow by Habitat Landscapes, Paradise in Ealing by Oakley Landscapes, and several roof terrace gardens by The Garden Builders.<\/p>\n<p>In restricted spaces, garden design must ensure that every plant, every feature serves a purpose, as well as forming part of the aesthetic. For example, a fence erected for privacy could also be a vertical garden of edible plants or a wall around a raised bed could double as a seat.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Low maintenance gardens<br \/>\n<\/strong>Research suggests that 29% of houses with a garden are being purchased by those under the age of 34. This generation of homeowners is not so concerned with a perfectly manicured lawn or an exquisitely balanced border. Instead, they want a garden that caters for the social and family lives they are living.<\/p>\n<p>Using <a href=\"\/product_categories\/landscaping\">professional landscaping products designed to make life easier<\/a> for both landscapers and homeowners are perfect for creating low maintenance gardens.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Calming and spiritual influences<br \/>\n<\/strong>Many of the projects shortlisted for the 2019 Awards are gardens centred around meditation and mindfulness &#8211; Frogheath Landscapes\u2019 Spiritual Retreat in Lewes, Stewart Landscape Construction\u2019s Buddhist Centre and Kingston Landscape Group\u2019s Abraham Cowley Unit Therapy Garden for St Peter&#8217;s Chertsey, for instance. Minimalist, sensual gardens also benefit from being low maintenance and require the same approach in their build and development.
