Garden design and planting in Pagham

Naomi Ferrett-Cohen plans gardens and planting for homes in Pagham and the Bognor Regis area. She is a garden designer and RHS Chelsea Silver-Gilt medallist, and she visits by appointment to see your garden and hear what you would like from it.

A garden by the coast has its own demands. Naomi sketches your garden by hand first, then builds a 3D model in SketchUp, with planting chosen for the site, so you can see how it will work before anything is built.

Gardens around Pagham

Pagham is a coastal village in the Arun district of West Sussex, west of Bognor Regis. The parish takes in coastline, harbour and arable farmland. Pagham Harbour, next to the village, is a Local Nature Reserve and a wetland of international importance. The village church, St Thomas a Becket, is a Grade I listed medieval building.

Close to a harbour and the sea, a garden meets plenty of wind and weather. Naomi starts at the first visit by looking at how your garden is sheltered or exposed, where you would like to sit and what you hope to see from the house.

Planting for a coastal garden

The land around Pagham is low-lying and flat. West Sussex landscape guidance for this part of the coast recommends trees and shrubs that tolerate the sea and salt-laden winds, so that is the starting point for planting a Pagham garden.

Naomi gardens by the sea herself, in the wind, so she knows which plants hold up on an exposed site. She chooses planting and materials that link the garden to the coast around it.
