Pictorial Meadows have been working very closely with local Landscape Architect Miguel Garcia Ovejero to establish Pictorial Meadows in a new park development in central Madrid. Large areas of the park were prepared for seeding and irrigation systems were laid by the local park’s workforce.

As an iconic Capability Brown landscape, The Trentham Estate brought in Professor Nigel Dunnett to carry out design and consultation works ahead of the planned year of celebrations in 2016 to celebrate Brown’s tercentenary.

This beautiful private home is also a place which extends a generous welcome to children with disabilities. It also supports charities through participation in the National Garden Scheme. The owner so much enjoyed the Olympic Park meadows that the brief via his Landscape Architect had been ‘a piece of the Olympic Park that we can see from our bedroom’.

“Pictorial Meadows were chosen as the contractor as they are ‘ a recognised wildflower meadow specialist with a proven track record – in order to ensure we got the finish we were looking for!”

Working in partnership with seven forward-thinking local authorities in Woking, Swindon, Birmingham, Liverpool, Leeds, Sheffield and Glasgow, Enterprise and Pictorial Meadows have transformed roundabouts across the country into natural wildflower gardens, promoting local bio-diversity.

For the third year in a row the Rotherham ‘River of Flowers’ caused a stir. The annual mixes were sown along 8 miles of verges and roundabouts throughout Rotherham. Rotherham Council have received a Green Apple award for Environmental Best Practice as well as over 250 compliments for the scheme.

Pictorial Meadows were invited to carry out a survey of Bled Golf Course in Slovenia which was undergoing a complete re-design undertaken by a specialist golf course architect. The course is situated in the foothills of the Alps in an area of outstanding natural beauty much of it untouched by development or cultivation for centuries.

One of our latest clients was the charity Froglife for whom we worked to create a thriving matrix of small and diverse watery habitats for our threatened amphibians across South Yorkshire.
