Edward Bulmer in his Brilliant Garden
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 фев 2025
- Edward is best known for his interior designs and his natural paints, and is a keen architectural historian but he is seriously keen about creating fabulous outdoor spaces too. He explains how they accidentally discovered historic water gardens and reclaimed them. He has used several shades of his paints including Noke Green and Invisible Green plus some blues to lift bridges, seats and wheel barrows. He loves collecting gates and uses them to frame views and plays with scale to add more interest such as adding huge piers to them.
Edward loves yew and topiary and ‘architecture in leaf’ has grown an impressive ‘amphitheatre’ plus huge 5m hornbeam hedges with alcoves in them plus a hornbeam arcade. A dramatic and very impressive garden from in reality a frustrated Landscape Architect who loves ‘mucking around in the garden’!
To hear more about Edward’s garden listen to Bunny’s podcast ‘bunny in the Garden with Edward Bulmer’.

I'm a doctor and a gardener. Frankly gardening is therapy for me. You take on a lot of emotions from patients and the garden is where I release it.
As a fellow physician, I couldn’t agree more.
I suffer from PTSD and gardening is like my therapy.
Love the reflecting pools, and the relaxed formality
This garden is absolutely gorgeous. I loved his play on scale and all those hedges and topiaries really make this garden a unique space.
Extremly beautiful, such places are jewels in the world!
Elegant, beautiful, simple and so interesting. Thank you both
Thank you Bunny and Edward. Fabulous garden and great practical gardening tips and how to add architectural style to a garden.❤❤❤
Two of my favourite people together! A real pleasure.❤
Impressive, inspirational, grand and gorgeous! ❤ love everything!
I'm an American, and I would most definitely travel a long distance to see this spectacular house and garden. What an eye Edward has! The combination of the water and hedges with the architecture and natural setting of the house is perfection. All of the work put into maintaining the water gardens is so incredibly worth it. Bunny, thank you for sharing this wonderful garden.
Very nice interview the best part we could hear every word!
I’m a Bulmer as well and I also love gardening. My father, grandfather, and great-grandfather were also gardeners. It must be in the genes😊
Thank you for letting us visit your beautiful and very diverse garden. I really enjoyed the different garden rooms and how you framed views with gates and hedges. I would absolutely love to see it, if possible, next time in England. Greetings from a garden enthusiast in Norway 🌸
I have watched this so many times, I have lost count.Its brilliant and inspiring.
Love the electric robot lawnmower cutting the side lawn as the talk past history ❤
Well done. very enjoyable
A beautiful house and garden. I liked the first part with the brick house, the beautiful pond and the peacock !
As an American who is used to "drought tolerant landscaped suburban yards", it's a thrill to see lush open landscapes like this, which hearken back to Capability Brown. The house is not Victorian, so I like that he's doing something grander and more architectural with the space and water, rather than miles of floral borders. If the river and ponds were not managed, the house and outbuildings might be in danger of flooding. People need to work with their location and climate. I like that Edward does his own thing and experiments to see what works, rather than bringing in a crew to 'do everything up'. I bought an adjacent piece of property (6,000 square feet), where I plan to try lots of different things I can't do near the house. I adore the look of Edward's greenhouses, and the surprising pairs of urns amongst the green. Really a lovely setting. Thanks for seeking him out, Bunny! :)
Beautiful garden. ❤
I love Bunny and the posh accents. We keep the pool open all winter for the reflection of the house. But we don’t have to host wedding parties. 🤣 Seriously, this is a beautiful place!
Really spectacular, thank you Bunny for showing us. This man is the right one for this place.
I really enjoyed this video. Gorgeous house and absolutely loved the pillars with their accompanying urns. I have some large urns - never considered them filling with water and freezing though - something I should think about come winter.
Beautiful gardening and a great place to make a scarry movie! wow.Thanks for this.
This has been my favorite of all your tours! Delightful conversation and very inspirational! Thank you.
Gorgeous gardens!
Very interesting, thanks so much. I loved the host’s modesty as he casually pointed out yet another formal canal or one more endless wall of clipped hornbeam.
Such a beautiful home !!🏡 my goodness
What a beautiful house and garden. I’d love to visit one day.
Gorgeous! ❤
Beautiful design. My favourite is the rose garden!
Wonderful!
what a spectacular garden♥
C'est magnifique !
The garden is beautiful but we could have seen more of it if the camera operator panned around it whilst Bunny was interviewing Edward. I have noticed this in most of her videos. We only see the bits they are standing in.
Excellent
Lovely
It would be much less good to visit this in real life. There is a lot of nuance and detail i would never stop to recognise IRL. I feel like i understand it more this way.
Bannerman and wife helped at Highgrove create gardens.So here he had a hand too
It transported me back to my childhood
What is the flower Bunny mentions at 25:02? I cant quite understand what she is saying…
It’s Acidanthera murielae, not quite hardy I bring in in winter in Cambridgeshire 🐇
He decorated my downstairs loo
5:44 pronunciation of topiary - is that the authentic way of saying it, I wonder?
What is the other way?!🤔💚🎨
Dread the rates on house that size . I have small manor house in 5 acres of English gardens in Europe .Rates not an issue
It was ever thus - weirdly we are charged rates on our home but not the business we run from it🤔💚🎨
6 minutes in before you change the view…show garden with voice over
No flowering plants!?
Makes a change doesn’t it?! We do actually have herbaceous borders in the walled garden 😉💚🎨
@@edwardbulmernaturalpaint1152 Your house and garden are wonderful! Living here in Southern California, I never get tired of looking at lush English landscapes. When it's blazing hot here in September, I go online to see what Bunny is up to...your water garden warrants another visit. Cheers!
Far too much water and no planting in borders
You should see it when the river floods! Borders are exhausted by end of September in what has been a cold wet year here. They looked great in June/July though!😉💚🎨
