About Arnold Yoke

Completely redesigned and replanted one acre garden complementing 15thC wealden hall house. Yew and box hedging provides a framework for varied mixed borders planted in a way that provides the longest possible period of interest and colour. A ‘paradise’ garden with water feature forms a centre piece, whilst a rockery and further borders lie in the background. There are many special small trees (including Albizia, Myrtus luma, Acer griseum, numerous cherries and crabapples), and a tall, clipped leylandii hedge with large insets of Hedera marengo
form an intriguing west wall.
