Join us for a special weekend with Fergus Garrett, Chief Executive and Head Gardener at Great Dixter—the longtime family home of Christopher Lloyd in East Sussex, UK. Great Dixter is famously known as one of the most influential and celebrated gardens in the world. Since his arrival in 1993, Fergus worked closely with Christopher Lloyd to transform Great Dixter into the garden laboratory that it is today, where new ideas are tested, generations of horticulturists are trained, and groundbreaking research is carried out.
Today, the Great Dixter property is filled with wildflower meadows; a 150-foot border of boldly colorful flowering shrubs, perennials and bulbs; a kitchen garden; the Sunk Garden (a floral-filled courtyard centered on an octagonal pond); the Old Rose Garden (now filled with rare and exotic plants); and the Peacock Garden, where eighteen giant yew topiary birds preside over peaceful thalictrums, asters, teasels and grasses.
This immersive event at Landcraft Garden Foundation offers a rare opportunity to learn directly from Fergus through lectures, garden tours, and hands-on demonstrations.
