August is the big time for maximum flower impact in our prairie garden .Surrounded by shady mature oak trees the eight acre Sussex Prairie garden consists of a series of interlocking arcs of large planted borders in a naturalistic style.The large borders encourage exploration and adventure and visitors are welcome to roam in amongst the mighty plants to further enjoy the experience.Its time to be immersed in colour and spectacle.
The plantings consist of large groupings of each variety, planted in a free flowing style, which contrasts leaf forms, stems, stalks, flower shapes and textures. Colours are soft and muted, and complement the natural landscape. You can expect swathes of glorious flowers and impressive drifts of billowing grasses – its time to lose yourselves in beauty.
Our teashop will be open selling delicious homemade cakes and icecreams , coffee and tea and there will be fabulous unusual plants available for sale in our plant nursery.
You will surely be transported to India when you discover the exciting marquees packed with delights at the Indian Summer Bazaar who will join us for the whole of August – all available for you to enjoy when you visit the garden in August.
