Description: The burial ground's original planting design featured traditional yew trees with pink and white heathers fronting each gravestone, facing towards Mecca. For the restoration, the landscape practice considered key research into Islamic gardens in the UK and specifically Europe's largest Muslim burial ground, the Gardens of Peace Muslim Cemetery in Ilford, which marries the English garden of remembrance and Koranic references.
