Very surprised by Anonymous's disappointment. I was there very recently and it was fantastic - simply astounding plant collection including many new plants, excellent design and really well maintained. A joy of a visit - strongly recommend.

Travelled from overseas to visit this garden and given the literature, had big expectations. Somewhat disappointing - visited in spring which is probably best time to visit. Garden is a bit "tired" and could do with a complete re-vamp.
