About
The Beth Chatto Gardens are an informal collection of historically significant gardens in Essex, England, with National Heritage Grade II listing. The ecological gardens were created by plantswoman Beth Chatto in 1960 from the gravel soil and bogs of the disused fruit farm belonging to her husband, botanist Andrew Chatto. They are a series of gardens that display examples of sustainable planting based on Beth Chatto's ethos of 'right plant, right place'. The gardens are located at White Barn House in the village of Elmstead Market, 6 miles (9.7 km) east of Colchester.
