In 1832, Loudon established the design theory entitled Gardenesque.

He was considered by his contemporaries to be the best exponent of the Gardenesque school of landscape gardening.

The flowers are displayed in beds and glass houses, in accordance with 19th Century Gardenesque tradition.

Marnock designed the Botanical Gardens in the then highly fashionable Gardenesque style.

Designed by others in Loudon's 'Gardenesque' style:

The design of this area was, and still is, firmly in the Gardenesque tradition, with specimen trees and flower beds set in flat lawns.

He laid out the Gardens in the then highly fashionable Gardenesque style, where each plant was displayed to perfection in scattered plantings.

With the spread of botany as a suitable avocation for the enlightened, the Gardenesque tended to emphasize botanical curiosities and a collector's approach.

This attention to an educational and botanical interest in landscape design was becoming fashionable through the work of John Loudon and his ideas of the 'gardenesque'.

The landscape is referred to as Gardenesque, a style that is characterized by long vistas, curving paths, and trees and shrubs bordering the lawn.

Camperdown Elms satisfied a mid-Victorian passion for curiosities in the 'Gardenesque' gardens then in vogue.

In a Gardenesque plan, all the trees, shrubs and other plants are positioned and managed in such a way that the character of each plant can be displayed to its full potential.

The Gardenesque approach involved the creation of small-scale landscapes, dotted with features and vignettes, to promote beauty of detail, variety and mystery, sometimes to the detriment of coherence.

Recent releases such as Gardenesque and Sound Asleep show further musical progression and exploration into more complicated structures while still retaining their evocative, intimate and eclectic sound.

In 1972 he became the Artistic Director of 'Gardenesque Landscape Design' in Liphook, Hampshire, where he also studied landscape design under Peter Coates and John Brookes.

The 'Gardenesque' style of English garden design evolved during the 1820s from Humphry Repton's Picturesque or 'Mixed' style, largely under the impetus of J. C. Loudon, who invented the term.

This could be done in a French formal manner with pleached limes, clipped yew and box or in the English Gardenesque style of the early 19th century, with flowering trees and shrubs, colourful beds and serpentine lawns.

Their influences are varied and include 60s film soundtracks ('Sunny Spot' from Gardenesque contains portions of Les Caids from French composer Francois de Roubaix) and French pop, indie rock and krautrock.

In 1994 this cultural and historic significance was recognised by the National Trust of Australia which included the whole of St Leonards Park in its register, describing the area as a rare example of an urban park in the English 'gardenesque' tradition.

The garden is also important as an example of the Gardenesque design style, exhibiting the following style characteristics: a dominance of shrubberies with minimal lawn area; use of gravel paths; and use of trees with distinctive form as features (Criterion B.2).

The emphasis on an educational landscape, as opposed to a purely aesthetic, visually attractive picturesque, drew partly on a simplified version of John Loudon's 'Gardenesque' concept, and applied something akin to this, but with a unique alphabetical approach, and no structural mounding, to a picturesque cemetery design.
