| Description of Garden | Designer:
|
|||||
| Borde Hill Garden, an award winning garden, is set in 200 acres of spectacular Sussex parkland in West Sussex. This romantic garden, with trees and shrubs from China, Asia, Tasmania and the Andes, was created in the 1890's by Colonel Stephenson Clarke, with botanical interest and garden design playing equally important roles. Intimate garden 'rooms' offer a rich variety of seasonal colour from rhododendron and azaleas to roses and herbaceous plants. Garden highlights; Jay Robin's Rose Garden, designed by RHS Gold Medallist, Robin Williams, in 1996; Mediterranean and Italian Gardens, Azalea Ring, and sub-tropical Dells, Garden of Allah and over 70 'champion' trees. Extensive woodland and lakeside walks |
