Dallington Garden

A naturalistic perennial and ornamental grass garden that ebbs and flows through the seasons

A naturalistic suburban garden in Ōtautahi Christchurch, designed to celebrate seasonal change. Layers of ornamental grasses, evergreen shrubs, and herbaceous perennials create a richly textured landscape that evolves throughout the year. Fresh Spring growth gives way to the exuberance of Summer, followed by the warm hues of Autumn-flowering perennials. In Winter, seedheads and fading foliage are retained, lending structure, atmosphere, and subtle beauty to the garden while providing valuable habitat for wildlife. Inspired by natural plant communities, the garden celebrates seasonal change rather than resisting it.
