Project:

Graduate Landscapes was selected to landscape the entrance roads of the upcoming development at Dunsfold Aerodrome, a project more than 20 years in the making. Our work included the installation of over 200 Acer freemanii ‘Autumn Blaze’ trees, planted in specialist tree pits designed with aggregates and engineered soils to ensure long-term health and stability.

Alongside this, we established extensive wildflower meadows and installed stock fencing to protect more than 10,000 newly planted whips. These enhancements will create a visually striking and ecologically rich approach to the development, setting the tone for a high-quality landscape as the project moves forward.

The choice of Acer trees also serves as a tribute to the aerodrome’s military history, honouring the Canadian soldiers who played a key role in its construction during World War II.
