About Holly Bank

The garden is bordered on one side by a hedge and on the other side by a rill. At the end of the back garden, the rill borders Pastureland on the other side.

This garden is not set up with separate themed beds, everything is mixed planted. The garden is mainly planted with wild and old garden roses, with some modern roses interspersed for a longer blooming season. The roses are interplanted with dwarf fruit trees, bushes and canes. The planting has been filled out with herbaceous perennials, spring bulbs and annuals flowers.
