Great Dixter is a garden you can immerse yourself in, vibrant, daring and exciting. Once the family home of the great gardener and garden writer Christopher Lloyd, now led by Fergus Garrett. Great Dixter is gardened remaining true to the personality of Christo. It is a highly managed garden that is bold, experimental and has a long season. It is exuberant yet rich in biodiversity. We value authenticity, we do not ‘mock up’ areas of the house but remain true to the way Christopher lived. We want our visitors to feel as if they’ve stepped into another world. There is little signage or signs of being in a garden open to the public, Great Dixter still feels like a family home. We train students and scholars from all over the world creating an inspirational working environment with interesting horticultural discussions. We welcome professionals from the world of horticulture, design and ecology. We garden with biodiversity at the forefront of our minds.
