Wilderness at Ormeley Lodge

 

The Wilderness is my name (copied from Ham House) for the section of the garden at Ormeley Lodge where wild grasses and flowers grown tall among some fruit trees. It is also my favourite part of the garden that has several sections with different characters and moods.

The Wilderness sits beyond the main lawn and formal borders that sit next to the house and are separated from it by a tall hedge. Within the Wilderness lower hedges give shape to the garden and curved paths provide routes through it that bring the grasses and flowers up close.
