The Green Island Gardens were laid out in 1997 after much of the old orchard originally of Ardleigh Park was cleared. Only Cotinus coggygria 'Atroppurpuea' remains from the original overgrown beds. The borders are edged by timber logs all from fallen trees in the woodland. Planting is designed to give all year round interest although they really peak from late June onwards and provide colour and interest through autumn and winter. Magnolia grandiflora 'Gallisonae', Pittoporums, Hoheria sexytylosa 'Stardust', Clerodendron trichotomum, Acers and Phormiums providing the structure. A Pawlonia tomentosa coppiced annually in February creates a magnificent focal point by August each year. |
