I visited Fergus Garrett, head gardener and CEO of the Great Dixter Charitable Trust, for an interview on the 6th of April, 2023. I went earlier and stuck around after our chat as well. It’s such a calming place.

Then Mark and I went back on the 12th and 16th of May 2023, once to photograph Fergus and Great Dixter in the rain and then in the sun. Every time you visit Great Dixter, it has changed, grown, and evolved. Like the bees, we moved from flowerbed to flowerbed.
