Description of Garden:
The gardens are planted with mainly herbaceous plants that are their best in the summer- although the woodland garden is planted with many spring treasures, with Snowdrops, Hellebores, Erythroniums and Wood Anemones.
This garden is not to be missed by gardeners and artists alike, it is a work in progress, rather than finished artwork, as the refinement and improvement is on-going.
