Gardens

When establishing the Gardens 25 years ago, the broad landscape of the Sussex Weald and South Downs provided Graham Gough with a rich source of inspiration. By selecting and experimenting with plants and plantings of a more expressive style, a garden was created that melds almost seamlessly with the timeless beauty of the vista beyond.

2024 Opening times:  Marchants Nursery and Gardens are open 10am to 5pm / Thursday – Saturday inclusive.

“…hedges and fences at every turn …lines of beauty achieved by long observation, hard thinking and the craftman's hand in this little world where reason and romanticism come happily together.”
