Description
An interesting and extensive, ‘plantspersons’ garden which has been booked exclusively for our club. A great opportunity to socialise!
This is a garden defined by its plants. There are over 1400 cultivars, with many rarities, densely planted over 3 acres to generate an exuberant display. It provides an intimate, immersive experience with this diverse array of herbaceous, shrubs and trees. An intriguing ‘Madness garden’ opened in 2022. It is a garden for all seasons but with real impact in late spring and high summer.
