Isn't it remarkable in how Vita's vision and Harold's structure have been transformed over the year with new plants, but without apparently a loss of vision? And I love how Sissinghurst is trying to be a working farm, again, with a kitchen garden, too.<br /><br />My post from a couple of years ago was:<br />http://naturalgardening.blogspot.com/search?q=Sissinghurst<br /><br />Look forward to hearing your thoughts about Great Dixter!<br /><br />LisaLisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06657232418012801175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3093185160483906357.post-6933631077652827472010-06-01T12:56:37.478-05:002010-06-01T12:56:37.478-05:00Hi Gail, what a lovely place.

Responses to Sissinghurst seem to be both something gardeners have in common and something that distinguishes them -- every gardener I know who has visited Sissinghurst considers it an important experience, but it is important to each of them for a different reason.
