Description
Book SynopsisIn 2003 Carol Bruce began turning three acres of neglected ground into an award-winning garden. She developed an innovative approach to gardening that fuses natural selection and landscape-inspired design techniques into a garden that is both an ornamental ecosystem and a living work of art. Since it first opened to visitors through the National Garden Scheme in 2012, the garden at Old Bladbean Stud has featured eight times in gardening magazines and raised over 80,000 for charity. In 2023 it was voted winner of the Nation's Favourite Gardens competition for the South East by readers of
The English Garden magazine and in 2022 and 2024, the garden featured on BBC
Gardeners' World.
