We can learn a lot about garden design by visiting famous gardens. In today's video, I'm sharing the design tips I learned from visiting two famous UK gardens: Sissinghurst Castle Garden and Gravetye Manor

Being raised in the UK and having spent the past forty years in the US, I can honestly say I miss English gardens and countryside. I find gardening quite challenging in Florida due to the weather. I’ll be back in the UK next month, so I’ll hopefully get my fill. Visiting the Chelsea flower show is still on my bucket list.

@GardenMoxie 23 күн бұрын

I can imagine that Florida is tough. Plus you have to keep your eyes peeled for things that can hurt you (snakes, etc.). I bet you are excited to go home. There is nothing more beautiful than the English country side. That's for sure. Chelsea flower show is on my bucket list too.

I started with a few potted roses and herbs at a rented home, then a 200 sq ft yard mostly covered with a deck, and am now trying to tame about a third of an acre (with the dregs of construction debris on 30%, lots of rocks, and clay soil), and though in live in Southern California, at every step I've been inspired by English Gardens. While sweeping Capability Brown landscapes and the full blown Sissinghurst experience are out of reach for most of us, scaling down the look and working with what you have can still provide a place for beauty. I am obsessed with urns and trellises, but have collected free used bricks and river cobbles for future hardscape, and incorporated the bougainvillea and native oaks here into my design plans. A White Garden can even be a few containers in a shady corner. I've always enjoyed your videos; you have a true gardener's spirit, and an excellent eye. The extra level of analysis is so helpful; we can all benefit from the knowledge these garden giants refined over their lifetimes. Great job!

Visiting some UK gardens - something I’d love to do. I’ve incorporated the idea of garden rooms in my little half acre lot, with a woodland area, a fenced backyard area and in the front yard my new rose garden. Well, the rose garden is in its second year and I’m still creating it. These things take a while to evolve. 😉 Love Robinson’s gardens but they feel so sweeping and large - and they are - but not sure how well that would translate to my much smaller spaces. My woodland garden would be a good area to think on this. Not sure my homeowners association would go along with the concept. I love your channel Sue. Thank you.

Thanks so much Diana. How nice that you have a woodland area. Your garden sounds wonderful.

I visited Sissinghurst three days ago and I can’t tell you how blown away I was by the design and planting. When I walked into the walled garden the scent of the roses and all the other plants hit me, it was incredible. The colours of the plants were amazing. I live in a cottage which dates back to around 1750 and have a beautiful cottage garden but I’ve never seen a garden to compare to sissinghurst. I think the best time to visit is June. Nearby is Penshurst Place which is the most romantic castle and beautiful grounds well worth a visit too if you’re in the area.

A garden for me is like art (or classical music) - it is not about the signs/captions (or the program notes), you look around (or listen), something that truly speaks to you is what you take away. For me, the High Line is what kickstarted my own journey. This idea of the new natural - the design of truly resilient wildlife friendly 4 season space inspired me to garden -- but to do so in my own way…. and to truly embrace change and evolution…

Garden rooms are something of the norm for us because we garden with lots of hedges and hedgerows but I do envy the big open spaces you have in the US. My favourite garden designer is Piet Oudolf, he designed a fabulous garden at Scampston Hall. If you ever do return to the UK Great Dixter and Hever castle are definitely worth a visit.

I seen a pink columbine and I had a surprise showing of the same this year in the middle of a wild bunch. Oh yes, the hardscaping. It’s what really makes a great landscape and I don’t have any. I have fenced in play areas to keep out the herds of wildlife. I’m trying to pick up ideas of what to do next with a front yard project. It’s really difficult. I have all the utilities Everywhere-fiber optic, gas line, electric, electric to septic and well, electric meter, A/C unit, need to stay away from the house because of snow from roof, no trees near fairly close drain field. It’s almost impossible to figure out when your ideas love formal and your area says eclectic and no hardscaping to guide plantings. The only thing I’ve settled on was moving two Very heavy statues with an arborvitae backdrop that needs to grow in and 3 lovely redbuds that are small but so pretty-the flame thrower has a burst of unique leaves as tiny as they are right now. Haven’t decided on fencing yet, need some stone for sitting area and a low retaining wall. Waiting for tulips and irises to finish doing their thing so I can move them out of sitting area. Need an arched gate and it’s difficult to figure where it should be, but the safer area is to stay well away from utilities. I’ve successfully propagated some boxwoods and maybe will use to disguise fencing. I seen a large doe and rabbits ate the tips off tuff yucca leaves and within hours coneflower that I just planted in an unprotected area. Sigh.

One thing I enjoy more than I would have expected, is limiting myself to only native plants. I'm a huge fan of the formal gardens, and love seeing the gardens that have matured over a century or more. Trying to accomplish something similar but only using native plants that help our ecosystem..... well, that's next-level kinds of fun! For example, a solid boxwood hedge looks absolutely perfect as the backdrop to a more "naturalistic" bed full of Echinacea and other wildflowers, but boxwoods aren't native to my area. Imagine my joy when I discovered that Ilex vomitoria (Yaupon Holly) has a variety with very small leaves similar to Buxus microphyla and can be trimmed to a hedge fitting for any English garden!?! I'm sure you can guess what my next step is going to be!

@GardenMoxie 15 күн бұрын

Thanks so much for sharing your native plant approach. I am very interested to learn more about the ilex vomitoria. As you know, boxwood is starting to have serious issues. I have too much of it planted in my garden. I started adding natives last season and started a little native woodland border in my back garden. I can understand why you think its fun. It really is. Thanks for your note.

@threeriversforge1997 14 күн бұрын

@@GardenMoxie Ilex vomitoria is a diocecous evergreen and chock full of bright red berries in the wintertime if you make sure to select a female plant. Plus, it's America's only caffeine-producing plant. The tea made from the Yaupon leaves looks and tastes like what you'd buy at the store, but it's right out your back door instead. How fun is that! It's a plant that's fairly popular in the horticultural trade, so you might be able to source some locally. It can form thickets and sucker up from the roots, so be cautious about introducing a non-native plant to your area. You might only be able to get the male plants so there's no chance of seeds escaping into the ecosystem, but the loss of the red berries would be a small price to pay for preserving the native landscape.
