The White Garden

  • Since I saw The White Garden at Sissinghurst Castle Garden the first time about 25 years ago, I have been hooked!
    In my own garden I have several garden rooms where I'm combining white flowers with silvergrey foliage from perennials, annuals, schrubs and trees.
    In this video I'm showing my own garden but I'm also at Sissinghurst Castle Garden. I hope, that you will enjoy ...
    My name is Claus Dalby, and I live in Risskov on the outskirts of Aarhus in Denmark. To date, I have written about 30 books on flowers and gardens in Danish, and my garden has been featured on many TV shows. In March 2022 my first book in English will be available. I consider my home (built in1908), and its garden with its neighboring wood, as my sanctuary. When I started gardening in 1996, there was just a large lawn covering approximately 1 acre (4,000 square meters), but today the grass is long gone - replaced by 15 hedged rooms with varying colors and moods. Additionally, one of my great passions is growing in pots, arranged to create spectacular container gardens, which I will share quite a bit about on this channel. Decor and creating moods have always interested me - both outside and inside - and I love to use the flowers from my garden for bouquets and to inspire other crafts that create a sense of hygge.

    Indeed, visiting the White Garden is a transformative experience. You return home and attempt to create one for yourself. It is then that you realize what a complex task that is. You need to plan for a series of blooms in succession. You require different foliage textures. You want different heights in your garden. It is quite a challenge to get all those requirements right. You seem to have mastered all those categories as your white garden is superb. What a treat you have given us.

    Oh, Mr Dalby, I think your white garden is more beautiful than the one at Sissinghurst, because you have more foliage in lime greens and silvers, and in different textures. Your plants always look immaculate and lush, and I love your artistry! Thank you for making your videos; I find them inspirational! (Just so you know, mine is a rambling country garden, in rural New Zealand.)

    • @ClausDalbyEnglish
      @ClausDalbyEnglish  2 года назад

      Thank you so much for your kind comment about my garden. My tip to a successful planting scheme - which also applies to a small space - is to limit the numer of different plants you use and repeat them instead. So if I was to pkant up ten or twelve containers, I would only use three or four different types of plants.

    Claus, if you can, please give some suggestions. Love the full garden look. However, I live in a very very humid area of the US and we receive between 45 to 65 inches of rain per year. So for various fungus reasons plants usually require more breathing space. Do you have any recommendations on plants that would do particularly well in this type of environment?? Thank you.

    Just beautiful. I visited Sissinghurst two decades ago and it's a pleasure to see it again.
    At the 5:45 mark there is a large flat white mass of blooms in the bottom left corner of the screen. It almost seems to be growing on top of the hedge. Is it a clematis?
    There is a purple allium hiding behind the white stone container on a pedestal. I spotted it over your shoulder at 11:56. It is on the left from the camera's view. :)
