| Description of Garden | Designer:
Anne Wareham |
||
| This 4 acre garden in a charming valley setting features spectacular planting, partly in a formal setting with roses and hollies framed by box together with perennials, clematis and vegetables such as purple kale and red cabbage. Elsewhere the owners have cleverly mingled the formality of yew hedges with small "cornfields" of barley and wild field flowers including poppies, corn marigolds and corncockle. Hardy geraniums are grown amongst unmown meadow grass and contrast with purple, white and pink gardens. Further acres of woodland are being underplanted with ornamental shrubs to become part of the garden in due course. |
|||
| History of Garden | |||
| The garden has been created over the past 15 years out of two fields. It surrounds a 200-year-old cottage. | |||
