The Nursery Garden occupies about 1/6 of an acre, and is laid out in a formal cottage style.  The garden has sixteen themes and the beds and borders are small enough for visitors to get close to most of the plants.

 

Ornamental grasses are used in mixed planting in all the beds and borders. Their contribution and presence are quite critical especially later in the season.   

 

A curtain of ornamental grasses screens the Nursery Garden from the drive in late summer through to winter.

 

Miscanthus sinensis cultivars ranging in height from 45 cm to 2 m are used to good effect.
Text Box: Competitive Advantages Well organized sales area Lots of information Interesting selection of perennials

In the nursery we protect our tall grasses from the wind in a white netting covered polytunnel. The netting makes possible to maintain a high light level and we can take advantage of rain.
