Spring into Garden Living with Hayman-Joyce Broadway

At Hayman-Joyce Broadway, we know just how important your outdoor space is – especially here in the beautiful North Cotswolds and the Vale of Evesham. As local property experts with a high street office in the heart of Broadway, we see first-hand how a well-loved garden can completely transform a home.

As spring arrives and the countryside bursts back into life, it’s the perfect time to refresh your garden and set the scene for the warmer months ahead. From spring cleaning to planting with purpose, here’s how you can make the most of your outdoor space this year.

Start with a spring clean and a fresh vision

As winter fades, it’s time to sweep away fallen leaves, prune carefully, and prep your soil for the season ahead. Now’s the moment to imagine your perfect garden – whether it’s a wildflower haven, a structured sanctuary, or something entirely your own. A trip to one of our wonderful local garden centres around the Cotswolds might just spark your next idea.

Create a garden that restores and recharges

Wellness gardens are more than a trend – they’re a way to bring peace and calm to your everyday life. Whether it’s a quiet corner for a morning coffee, a pergola draped in fragrant climbers, or a simple fountain to bring in the soothing sound of water, you can create your own peaceful retreat just steps from your back door.

Make room for fun and family

Spring is also a chance to reimagine your garden as a space for everyone. From outdoor kitchens to playful hideaways for children or grandkids, defined spaces can bring joy all year round. Think sustainability, comfort, and character – your garden can be as multi-functional as it is beautiful.

Add beauty you can eat

The rise of edimentals – plants that are both ornamental and edible – is showing no signs of slowing down. Strawberries, herbs, and even edible flowers like Daylilies are a wonderful way to add colour and purpose to your planting. They look stunning and taste even better.

Bring the outside in – and the inside out

Living in the Cotswolds, we’re lucky to enjoy a close connection to nature. Blurring the lines between indoors and out can enhance that even further. Potted plants on your patio, vertical gardens, or even a bright window herb garden can bridge your spaces beautifully.

Grow with the planet in mind

Sustainable gardening is something many local homeowners are embracing. Plant for pollinators, collect rainwater, and opt for reclaimed or responsibly sourced materials when adding to your space. Every small step makes a difference – and creates a more resilient garden too.

Celebrate the seasons

Gone are the days of perfectly pruned borders year-round. Today, gardens full of seasonal charm are in vogue. From meadow-style planting and wildflowers to ever-changing colour schemes, your garden can evolve with the year. Embrace dandelions, daisies, and dynamic planting – nature knows best.
