The Garden House - England

 Visited on August 24, 2016 

Recently I was reading the tour itinerary led by a garden writer and she included The Garden House on her tour.  It got me thinking,  I recall this garden was clever and I really liked a couple of the gardens and their line of sharp A framed hedges.  So I wanted to review and update this old post from 2016.

I found this slope of interlocking ovals a thoughtful way to make a sloping lot more interesting.  The fact that the dimensions of this garden is almost exactly that of the typical San Francisco garden.  We have lots of typography too.
