This attractive little garden in Perth was once described as the finest two acres of private garden in the country, this oasis of peace and colour is a real urban haven.

The garden contains an impressive collection of many rare and unusual plants: among the most breathtaking are the Himalayan poppies, Meconopsis.

Seasonal highlights include the renowned collection of alpines and rhododendrons in May and June and in Autumn the garden comes to life with the fiery red Acer palmatum . Many of the plants grown here are on sale in the potting shed shop.
