Probably The Best Spring Garden In The World

It certainly is lovely Andrew, but no! keep your spring flowers! No ripping out! Your garden is lovely.

its stunning andrew so much cramed in there, wouldnt want to sort it all out after spring though, so think i will keep a mixed season in my border ;o))

lovely Andrew,thanks for sharing ...yes if i had the time & energy i would love my garden to look like this, ahhh well....

That's just beautiful, hardly a bare patch of soil. Oh, if I mine looked like that it would be a dream come true! : o ) )

Wonderful!
Just think we have the whole summer ahead of us to wonder round great gardens.

Andrew...They do look lovely but what happens with these borders after the spring flowers have gone over?

Potty - the bulbs are left to die down and then lifted. I think the borders are left bare (apart from the permanent plants such as euphorbias, pulmonarias and dwarf cherries) but busy lizzies are planted in the large pots. With a very large garden, you can have areas almost blank for part of the year but it's not really an option for our smaller plots

Thanks for sharing Andrew, its really lovely and a pleasure to look at your photos.

Yes Andrew it is nice but not as nice as yours where you show us lots of interesting planting.

Thanks for the pictures Andrew,I really must get to Sissinghurst.

Thanks Andrew, I can see how in a large garden this would look OK but not on a smaller plot. :o)

love sissinghurst :)

Hi, what great photos, another one to visit. I was surprised when my mother and I visited Goodnestone Park garden in the spring. Really surprises that rhododendron's where thriving and so beautiful so close to home.
