We have over an acre of densely planted gardens, all held together by a strong design ethic and meticulous maintenance.
Here are some stunning photos of the garden, taken by Jenny, the garden owner, and updated regularly.
‘Work in Progress’ photos to show aspects of the garden’s development, in all it’s messy reality.
Much of our garden is summer dry (unirrigated) but do not expect the typical low maintenance garden.
A selection of resorces we discovered on our journey to ‘summer dry’ gardening. Here you’ll find links to videos, articles, plant lists and websites. This is a deeper dive for plant nuts like us.
We are an open garden, from 1 November until April 30.
We welcome small and large groups.
