Charity Garden Opening - Amisfield Walled Garden

A large 18th-century walled garden, abandoned for many years until around 15 years ago and since transformed. The garden, which has an area of approximately eight acres, is completely enclosed by 16 foot high walls of dressed stone. Each corner features an elegant stone pavilion. Over the years, herbaceous borders, vegetable plots and fruit trees have been planted and new paths laid. A hornbeam walk, maze, sensory gardens and potager have been added. Apple trees were planted on the diagonal pathways and small orchards have been introduced. Willow beds surround the Winter Garden. A wildflower meadow and pond have been introduced as a further step in our biodiversity plan. A garden of interest and joy all year round.

This is a fundraising event for the open garden charity Scotland’s Gardens Scheme which raises money for hundreds of local charities.
