VISIT TO THE GRANGE - JULY

Our visit took place on a lovely sunny evening which was perfect for enjoying the prairie style planting, the pond and lake and enjoying tea by the stream.

We visited this 11 acre garden in Chalgrove in mid-July and it proved to be an outstanding choice.

The planting around the enormous lake was very varied.  It was backed by a large collection of grasses shimmering in the sun and many prairie style plants which were at their peak.  

Other attractions included a lovely island in the middle of the lake with outstanding views from the summerhouse.  There were also traditional borders near the house and a walled vegetable garden and orchard.
