About you and your business ( please complete)
Initially working as a professional Gardener I set up Judi the Gardener in February 2011. Now in my seventh year of business I work on garden design and development projects trading as Judi Samuels Garden Design. In my earlier life I studied dance at the Laban Centre and the London Contemporary Dance School, during my twenties and thirties I was a professional dance tutor and choreographer working with theatre in education, regional theatre and adult education. Whilst raising a young family single-handedly I changed direction and flexed my organisational and writing skills by working as a communications coordinator for a large public company. I decided to turn my passion for gardening into a profession after redundancy in the summer of 2010, best decision made! I studied garden and planting design at Capel Manor College in Enfield, which set me on this wonderful journey. I am a pre-registered member of the Society of Garden Designers (SGD).

Lovely design, especially the the 'Groynes' - adds substance to the design.
To get that out to a larger audience by making use of SEO, I'd suggest you make make it into an LJN "Blog"

A coastal feel garden inspired by my clients' friends whose garden I had recently designed. My clients want low maintenance planting throughout the design and to create a sanctuary.
My clients love their outdoor space and it was important that I put together a design that celebrated their love of form as well using coastal feel influences inspired by visits to the Norfolk coastline. I incorporated upright timbers in the design to represent sea groynes, to be planted with a selection of tall lyrical grasses.
A garden retreat framed with oak partially hidden by tall slender evergreen trees (Cupressus sempervirens pyramidalis) to create seclusion.
I have used flowing curves on the ground to detract from the width of the garden and create movement on the ground. Behind the gravel garden a small evergreen forest feel border with two fallen tree trunks to symbolise my clients’ connection to each other and their love of nature.
