Images: David Hobson http://mistlefield.blogspot.com/ Here are another crop of images that show things are happening on fences, walls and anywhere else that goes up and down. Vertical gardens can create extreme beauty. Am loving the pinks and greens of the first image. Thanks for letting us have a peek at your fab [...]
A quirky garden art moment found in the car park of a bean bag shop in Ascot Vale Melbourne (King Kahuna) . Nothing more suburban than a timber pailing fence. How fantastic to treat the pailing fence with the 1950s suburban icon ‘flying ducks on a wall’. Garden Beet love’s the context change of [...]
Images by Janoel Liddy Here is a vertical garden along the bund in Shanghai China. The flowers are a great colour lift for the highly polluted city (photographer did not see the sun for 4 weeks due to the pollution haze – jeeps!) . The big round dishes are lights. Below is a shot [...]
My garden clock faces the street. And its all to do with the sheer frustration of designing public landscapes. Public areas are political.

Did you know the musty stag head hanging on your family’s drawing room wall has become an icon of super chic? The strong shape creates a great graphic. Garden Beet stocks this item in the garden wall art department. Ours are made of cast iron. The outdoor british brand Anorak use the icon on many [...]

A similar concept to the Dominus Winery in Napa Valley California. The winery was clad with gabions and also glowed in the dark. Landscape Architects (Hocker Design [...]
Garden Beet’s garden wall art accessories have ended up in the woods!! Rachel Meaton from Crossways Infants wrote ‘We have recently put our new wall insects up in the woods at Crossways Infants. They will be used in our new woodland walk. We have tried to use different materials and are using the insects for [...]
Recently I installed this living wall and am waiting on some more indoor plants before its complete. Meantime I stumbled across these begonias and gerberias being sold off cheaply at the local supermarket. Am now using the vertical garden as a temporary planting bed-cum-vase. I would consider leaving the begonias in long term however am [...]
Love it when customers send pictures of their Garden Beet wares. Here is some garden wall art – a contemporary take on the garden trellis Rory says ‘wanted to share a pic of our trellis in-situ, it’s getting some evergreen Jasime. Works well with our 70s flat (Brunswick Centre)’. Thanks Rory – it looks great. Sorry [...]
