Most of Rosewood's work involves designing and installing new vertical gardens.  However, we can also replace a living wall for you, should it be necessary.  There can be many reasons why an existing plant wall might need updating, or even replacing altogether.  Not a Rosewood living wall, of course!  A...

Rosewood has been sharing beautiful art for garden lovers ever since we started our blog and social media posting.  In 2021, we shared a modern flower painting each month.  For 2022, we plan to bring you images by the German sculptor and photographer Karl Blossfeldt (1865-1932).  The artist is most...

Today we want to share a great job we did in December.  This was designing and installing a large living wall to go inside the new headquarters of Griggs Homes.  Griggs, the long-established house builders, have a new head office in Borehamwood, and asked us to design a green wall...

Our choice of modern flower painting for December is a picture by Scottish artist Anne Cotterill (1933-2010).  It’s a good selection for this time of year, as it shows a jug full of Christmas roses.  Helleborus niger, to give it its  botanical name, are one of the few flowers to bloom...

The living wall in our photograph above is one that we installed in the summer.  We took the photograph on our routine maintenance visit three months after installation.  It was only a few days ago, so almost at the end of November.  However, the wall looks remarkably similar now to...

It's time for us to share this month's art for garden lovers, and this time it's a painting of anemones by Geraldine Girvan.  Girvan is a Scottish artist who was born in 1947.  She is a well respected artist here in the UK, usually painting flowers or cats, or sometimes both...

When designing a planting scheme for a new living wall, there's are several things to consider.  First, we have to think about the location, and whether the wall will be in full sun, partial shade or full shade.  Next we find out the client's preferences so that we can ensure...
