End of Year Garden Delights – for Essex Life

This is supposed to be the time of year when we put our feet up and enjoy the view of the garden at rest. But there is nothing quiet about the colour and texture that’s on offer come the final months of the year. Barbara Segall talks with Åsa Gregers-Warg, head gardener at Beth Chatto’s Plants and Gardens in Elmstead Market. Åsa and she compare notes on and Barbara offers a selection of plants that will delight the eye and nose in winter and suggests places to see them growing.
