What makes a Hidden Garden

            An unexpected layout

            Colourful plants, both flowers and foliage

            Unusual plants, perhaps from foreign countries

            Hidden corners

            Places to sit and contemplate

            High walls that suggest secrets within

            Maybe views of the surrounding area

                                                ……..and much, much more

A hidden garden          can be large or small

                                                 shady or sunny

                                    have    a pond, summer house, terrace

                                                lawns, flower beds, shrubs, wildlife areas

                                                vegetable patches and/or greenhouses

the only stipulation is that access to the garden must not be through your house.

Some gardens serve refreshments or have plants for sale
