| We have saved what may just be the best for last. This page does not look like much yet--but these areas have tremendous potential. Aberglasney is blessed with two Woodland areas--the Upper Woodland east of the House, known as Bishop Rudd's Walk and the Lower Woodland west of the Pool Garden and Kitchen Garden known as Pigeon House Wood. The spring fed stream of Bishop Rudd's Walk flows under the House, through the Cloister Garden, into the Pool and through Pigeon House Wood.The Upper Woodland is scheduled to be planted with ferns, tree ferns, many species of Lilies along with the closely related Nomocharis. Other plants include Meconopsis, Daphne, Primula, Paris and Orchids. The Lower Woodland is scheduled to be planted with Magnolias, Rhododendrons, Rodgersias, Ligularias, Gunneras, Primulas, and many bulbous plants particularly Galanthus and Erythronium. The mild winters, abundant rain fall, and inspired management should all work together for world class results. |
