Jane Hamel Garden Design
I design gardens for rural and urban locations, with traditional or modern architecture, mainly in Northamptonshire, Oxfordshire and Warwickshire. I am passionate about plants, good design and green spaces and I hope you will explore my website further and get in touch. A note of thanks for all your work in designing and arranging the work on my front garden.

I am very pleased with the outcome and how it absolutely reflects my brief to you. Jane has understood our needs well, and adapted her designs to our lifestyle. We are very excited by the new designs, have been happy with Jane's work and can recommend her services. Jane has transformed my garden in ways that I could not have imagined.
Services
Jane Hamel has been working in horticulture for 18 years, firstly as an RHS qualified gardener, then training as a garden designer with the widely acclaimed Garden Design School. Her wealth of gardening experience has proved invaluable to her as a designer, giving her a profound understanding of plants and their requirements as well as an understanding of the needs of her clients.
The first thing you notice as you step into this garden is the stunning view across the countryside beyond it. This view is also visible from the dining room, and my design was intended to make the most of it. This meant taking out an island bed in the centre of the lawn, out, and extending the lawn to the edge of the garden, where the level dropped to the field beyond.
This garden had been designed about 14 years ago, by another designer, but my clients had recently acquired a new triangular shaped piece of land attached to it. They wanted this new part of the garden to be both a continuation of the existing garden - to flow from it as if it had always been there, and to become a 'secret', distinct space of its own, with a more informal atmosphere - with longer grass and wildlife- friendly planting.
This garden is in a conservation area. It has seven mature Yew trees and a large sycamore, within it, all with Tree Preservation Orders on, which means planning permission is required before any work can be done on them. When my client contacted me, the garden was dominated by a large drive, down the central and sunniest part, which divided the space into two.
This was a small garden designed for a young professional couple with no children or pets. They wanted an area for dining out, entertaining and a water feature (but not a pond), some herbs in pots and no lawn.

They liked architectural plants and soft colours so the structural planting includes a Magnolia grandiflora, a Sorbus cashmiriana, Fatsia japonicas and Yucca gloriosas, filling the garden with year-round lush green appeal and interesting shapes.
