The Naturalistic Garden
10am to 4pm, 22nd and 23rd November 2025

This garden was recently redesigned and landscaped, retaining a large boundary hedge, along with productive olive and fig trees. While professionally designed and landscaped with low stone walls, paths and a pond, the plant mad owner planted out the garden with a wide variety of predominantly herbaceous perennials, many originating from dry parts of Europe and the North American prairies, and many that like poor soil! The garden comes to life in spring and then there are flowers, bees and birds until winter sends the garden to sleep. While the choice of plants has been influenced by Mediterranean and naturalistic garden designers, it is an eclectic and busy mix where plants freely and joyfully intermingle.
