  Terrace

The sunken courtyard provides a natural amphitheatre for outdoor gatherings and may be used independently or in conjunction with the Westview Terrace which it is linked by a stone bridge. The trees, shrubs, grasses, sedges and perennials in this garden display year-round colour, interesting texture, form and fragrance.

Highlights:

• Acid soil: essential mineral nutrients are more
  readily dissolved in acidic water and are therefore more available to plants rooted in acid soil. While many plants find these minerals toxic in excessive amounts, certain plants, known as
  ericaceous plants, thrive on them. This garden’s
  acidic soil provides an ideal environment for
  the planting of ericaceous trees, shrubs and
  perennials. The addition of bark mulch and its
  ongoing decomposition helps this soil to remain
  acidic. Acid tolerant plants found in this garden
  include Japanese maples, rhododendrons,
  blueberries and a variety of conifers.
