Sissinghurst Castle 

Sissinghurst Castle is one of the most famous and delightful gardens in the British Isles.
It was created by Vita Sackville-West and Harold Nicolson who transformed the ruins of this Elizabethan mansion in the 1930s.
The Garden at Sissinghurst Castle is divided into a series of rooms filled with informal arrangements of plants around a theme: the White Garden, the Purple Border, the Rose Garden, the Herb Garden, the Lime Walk, and the Cottage Garden.
The White Garden with Rosa mullingani has cascades of white flowers and is surrounded by other white and grey plants.
Sissinghurst garden - is great!
