Browse Forums Landscape & Garden Design 1 Sep 02, 2010 2:26 pm Hi All I'm in desperate need of finding a picture of a landscape which was featured on BH & G a fair while ago now. Could be a couple of years even. Jason Hodges was presenting it and as a feature they used a large low to the ground timber swinging lounge/chair. Underneath was planted with say Dianella or the like. It was attached by large chains to some very large timber posts. This same "swing" was featured at the HIA expo 2 years ago. My drama is, I'm about to landscape my front yard into a courtyard with the help of a landscape architect and I want to show him a picture of what I'm thinking. I've searched BH&G site and googled my brains out looking for this thing. PLEASE, does anyone remember this or the landscape designer ? I'm not just after the swing but the look of the entire landscape. Thanks in advance. Re: Attention All Better Homes & Garden watchers 2Sep 02, 2010 11:21 pm Na sorry but I do know of something similar. Re: Attention All Better Homes & Garden watchers 3Sep 02, 2010 11:43 pm Have you tried the better homes website - you can do a search on there. Another thing is to ring their office and ask - we did this to Burkes Backyard many years ago and they were very helpful. Site Start: 10th September, 2010 PCI : Friday 27th January, 2011.

That is a round somewhere still I should try find it later Re: Attention All Better Homes & Garden watchers 8Sep 04, 2010 1:41 am If you can't find it (I certainly couldn't), then you could possibly check out his landscaping business website and ask him. http://www.greenartgardens.com.au/ask.html Re: Attention All Better Homes & Garden watchers 10Sep 04, 2010 2:02 am I gather this was the swing you were looking for?
