Announcing the Elizabeth Garden

NICKY EVANS, OUR SENIOR GARDENER, INTRODUCES AN EXCITING NEW SPACE FOR THE VILLAGE.

In the southern area of the Diamond, a new garden is being created for Port Sunlight’s residents and visitors to enjoy. The journey began when I undertook training with Michael Marriott, who was responsible for rose breeding at David Austen Roses and designed the planting scheme through the Diamond. Part of my training involved designing a rose garden, combining herbaceous plants with roses. I love formal planting schemes, so this played a big part in my final design which I’ve since used as inspiration for developing this new space.
