This week on The Horti-Culturalists we taking a look at a wonderful woodland walk in the garden of one of Stephen's neighbours! It's a small space - about 3.5m x 12m or 10ft x 40ft - running between the house and the fence but despite its relative smallness there is an astonishing array of plants giving colour form and texture throughout the year all of which make the walk seem a lot longer than it is! So in this video we'll look at the plants used to create this beautiful space, the things you need to consider when going about creating your own, and the possibility of being able to create a similar walk in a warmer climate. Many thanks to Cathy for letting us spend all morning lurking in her beautiful garden!!

Acer pentaphyllum
