A truly interesting plantswoman’s small garden. Winner of Best ECO Award 2012. One plot has been imaginatively laid out with a clever use of trellis supporting a variety of climbers. Small paths lead to various areas of densely planted herbaceous borders featuring, ferns, clematis, hellebores, geraniums, salvia, and some unusual plants. A Ginko tree is being trained into an espalier (I hope).
