‘The Garden of Hidcote’The idea of the garden room bordered by an eye-catching combination of plants was pioneered here by American-born British soldier and garden creator, Lawrence Johnston, who moved to Hidcote in 1907. The red borders, which date from 1913 are said to be the first single-coloured borders in England, and they glow with heart-stopping intensity in the soft light, especially when contrasted against the emerald green of the lawns and evergreens.
