Park Farm

3 acres developed over 40 yrs, with a huge variety of trees, shrubs and perennials, many rare or unusual. Much maturity but lots of new planting. Long vibrant borders, rose arches, alpine area, wildflower meadow, pond, and woodland garden. Plant labelling adds interest for both experienced and new gardeners. The spectacular view of the Minster is one of the sights of Nottinghamshire.

About Park Farm

The garden has an immensely diverse range of trees, shrubs and herbaceous plants, many rare or unusual. There are well over 500 different varieties of shrubs, including for example a very wide range of hydrangeas and acers. Over 30 different salvias compliment the extensive perennial borders. The garden has colour from early spring bulbs and blossom through to late summer and autumn dahlias, cannas and hedychiums. The garden design has evolved over 40 years and encompasses both wide vistas and quiet secluded areas. Plant labelling is extensive. Teas are enjoyed in the fountain garden. Photographs and descriptions can be found (no.59) in the 2017 blog of 90 gardens in the NGS (www.thegardengateisopen.blog) and in Garden News July 2022 and Garden Answers September 2023.
