Great Comp Garden
Open to
the public in the heart of Kent.
A garden of 7 acres,
with many beautiful and rare shrubs, perennials and other hardy and half
hardy plants. This Kent garden is a plantsman's haven. The year starts off with
Helleborus, followed by Magnolias, Rhododendrons and Azaleas; then through the
remainder of the year with rare and exotic shrubs and perennial plants - such as
the huge collection of Salvias.
There are
substantial areas of both formal and informal plantings - teasingly linked with
meandering grass paths and home built ruins - homing in on an Italian
Garden!
The garden has
been built over the last 50 years by Eric Cameron
Coach Parties: Pre-booked groups of 20 or more individuals are admitted
