We paid a long overdue visit to Petworth House today, although calling it a garden visit is stretching the truth somewhat.
The house and the grounds are stunning but I was surprised to find such a grand estate with no formal garden to speak of.
Nonetheless, we saw beautiful trees, vistas and deer, not to mention an exceptional art collection, including Turner, Blake, Bosch and Titian.
How does your garden grow?
I'm on a voyage of discovery in my first garden.
It's mostly about the veggies at the moment but I'm also discovering lots about flowers and other plants - quite often the hard way and always on a very tight budget.
But this blog is not just about my garden, it's about all the things I see and discover in Sussex and beyond and I would love to hear from you too.
