Morocco is all about outdoor living. The weather is beautiful year round, and Moroccans know to make the most of it. Traditional Moroccan homes in the city, called riads, open inwards and have courtyards at their heart. There you will find intricate tile work, fountains, and even trees.
For those houses that are lucky enough to have larger gardens, planning is required. Luxurious plantings are selected with care, and gardens are often decorated with all the attention given to a living room or bedroom. Beds in the garden are not uncommon and can be found in the swankier generation of new guest houses.
I have always wanted to have a beautiful garden. While garden dreaming one day on the web, I stumbled upon British garden designer, Charolotte Rowe. Charlotte was invited to design a feature garden at the Daily Telegraph House and Garden Fair. She entitled it Morocco Garden. Her work is stunning. Take a look here. How is that for inspiration? For those in London, you can contact Charlotte Rowe Garden Design here.
How about you, what garden dreams do you have?
