Although the nursery is only in its' seventeenth year, we have actually lived here for twenty nine years and the garden has been developed over that period. Most of the planning before alpines came along was carried out by Dot and she still is totally responsible for the herbaceous and shrub borders. More recently several raised beds and screes have been made to show as many alpines as possible being grown outside. Below is a selection of views of our garden .
