Head Gardener's Comment

Extending to 12 acres – the design and style of Longframlington Gardens is informality, all year interest, and low maintenance. It is a purpose created garden for visitors to enjoy, planted with Hazel Huddlestons ever growing plant collection and living exhibition of plants, including thousands of different types of native and ornamental trees, shrubs, perennials, climbers, groundcover, herbs and rock garden plants
