Quite a week @sissinghurstcastlegardennt. Haymaking finished just before a deluge of rain, followed by sublime September light, all surpassed and topped by a visit (the first in over 30 years) from Sibylle. Sibylle, along with Pam, were employed by Vita as joint head gardeners in 1959. They stayed working and improving the garden for 32 years, until retiring in 1991. Their legacy as gardeners, their hard work, their dedication to Sissinghurst, and their influence on generations of gardeners and gardens endures. I began work at Sissinghurst in 1992, and the tools and techniques we still use today, 32 years later, are those passed on from Sibylle. Heritage and tradition in a forward-thinking garden. https://the-history-girls.blogspot.com/2018/09/sibylle-kreutzberger-life-in-gardening.html

The Nuttery @sissinghurstcastlegardennt. A stylized woodland floor, but one with magic blown across it. 💚 #natureatitsbest #spring

Created over a thirty year period from 1930, Sissinghurst is arguably one of England's finest works of art of the 20th Century? Nearly 100 years later the garden continues to inspire a new generation. #vitasackvillewest #haroldnicolson
