Comment |
Hergest Croft is an extremely important woodland garden and arboretum around an Edwardian house. It has over 4,000 rare trees and shrubs, but there seems no end to the garden's marvels: huge conifers, magnificent birches, scores of interesting oaks, many acres of billowing rhododendrons - Hergest Croft is one of the best rhododendron gardens in Britain. But it is also worth visiting for its double herbaceous borders, alpine collections, roses, autumn gentians and kitchen garden, all on a scale that most of us have forgotten. |
