The Garden Pictorial

saltdean garden

gardening on the edge of the south downs
 

Situated on the edge of the South Downs National Park, garden owners Chris and David set about starting their new garden in 2016, and planting began in 2017. The garden is split over three levels and is packed with colourful perennials, annuals, grasses and a wonderful selection of succulents, some in the ground and some dotted about in pots. Their high up vantage point allows for some spectacular views, which makes up for the rather challenging conditions that they can sometimes experience with such an exposed site.
