A couple have transformed their suburban terraced house garden into a rainforest-inspired space.
Joe Pemberton and Linda Aradi said their garden in Delapre, Northampton, was inspired by their travels in Colombia.
The green oasis featured on an episode of BBC Two's Gardener's World and presenter Adam Frost said the pair took water gardening to "another level".
These pictures show how the couple transformed their garden with banana trees, eucalyptus, bamboo and several water features.

The couple call their finished project the "end of a long journey" and say they would never alter their unique garden


Most of the garden is covered in water, all naturally collected from rainfall

Most of the plants are sourced from a garden centre so they were easy to maintain, the couple says

The couple said the garden was "a dumping ground" when they moved in
