With fragrant flowers and herbs, reminiscent of ye ole flower garden . . .
| English Gardens encompass a more
formal, well tended Garden. Shrubbery, low grasses, and flowers are used as accents as well as borders, forming paths and boundaries, leading to small sanctuaries for repose. Benches, statuary, waterfalls and can be found just around the next border, surprising the senses with sight and smell. A popular inclusion are topiaries made of Camellias, Pomegranates, and Firethorns, planted or in a pot. Herbs are well balanced throughout the English Garden for their innate beauty as well as their utilitarian uses in the kitchen and as fragrant additions to dried arrangements. |
