HOVETON HALL 2022

At the beginning of 2022 we partnered up with Hoveton Hall Gardens to sponsor their newly installed Kitchen Garden full of Harrod Horticultural products!

Originally, a Victorian Kitchen Garden, this one acre walled garden has been redeveloped over the years to include lawns and herbaceous borders whilst still producing fruit for the Hall. The Knot Garden was planted in 1998, separated from the rest of the garden by a yew hedge with a central laburnum arch. The new addition to the Kitchen Garden can be found towards the rear on The Old Kitchen Garden, just to the side of the Spider Garden which is home to the idyllic Spider Garden Cottage.

In the kitchen garden you’ll be able to find a vast range of our products. Towards the left of the plot, you can find a Walk-In Peak Roof Steel Fruit Cage which houses three large Superior Wooden Raised Beds and Espalier Frames sat in them for rambling plants. In time, this showstopping fruit cage will be will be thriving with bountiful harvest.

The focal point of the middle plot is dedicated to one of our popular Roman Arches with two Southwold Pyramid Obelisks symmetrically placed in anthracite grey Superior Metal Raised Beds either side. This arch will be used to grow grapes and will become a shaded walkway through to the Southwold 3-Seater Bench strategically placed directly behind it. The Obelisks will be used to climb beautiful Sweet Peas. To one side of the arch, you can find a Step Over Support and to the other side of the arch, you can find a Harrod Espalier Frame which is being used to support blackberries.
