Wild at Heart

Frida Kahlo
A ready-made planting design inspired by Frida Kahlo, filled with bold colour and sculptural plants. An illustrated digital guide for a 10 × 10 metre courtyard or entrance garden in Puglia.
Turn your courtyard or entrance into a garden full of colour and character. Inspired by Frida Kahlo, this design brings together vivid blues, flamboyant pink and sculptural planting, with warm terracotta urns and a meandering path connecting your home to the wider Puglian landscape.
The Frida Garden
€250


An illustrated sixteen-page PDF with a botanical cover, two garden views, a sculptural corner close-up and a garden sketch.
A numbered overview and a detailed A3 planting plan for the fixed 10 × 10 metre layout.
A shopping list for 43 plants in nine types, with real plant photographs, names, quantities and buying sizes.
Simple planting steps, spacing guidance and suggestions for paving, gravel and terracotta urns.
A seasonal care calendar, nursery buying notes and the story behind The Frida Garden.

You will need a broadly level 10 × 10 metre area beside your house, patio or veranda, with sunny planting areas, freely draining soil and access to irrigation water. Choose a warm, sheltered setting protected from frost and strong salt spray.
The garden needs a suitable existing wall or climbing support. Allow space for the plants to mature, keeping spiky plants clear of walking routes. Existing olive trees can frame the garden; no new tree or pergola is required.
The guide includes an irrigation layout and simple instructions for connecting a Rain Bird timer to an outside tap already prepared for irrigation, with one continuous tube and individual drippers positioned at each plant’s rootball.

€250 buys the digital guide for use at one property. You can share it with the gardener working on that property.
Print your guide as a handy garden booklet, with the planting and irrigation plans printed at A3 for easy reference as you work. Clear, step-by-step instructions guide you through buying, positioning, planting and caring for your plants, giving you the confidence to bring the design to life, yourself or with your gardener, and create a beautiful space to enjoy for years to come.
The design is supplied as shown. Plant varieties, materials, delivery, ground preparation and installation are purchased separately. Site visits, personal advice and changes to the planting or layout are separate services. Construction, lighting and drainage drawings are not included.
A complete planting design, created to help you bring this garden to life in your own space.
If your space has a different shape, needs a different planting scheme or forms part of a larger project, contact Hayley about a bespoke garden design.
