- 5. New River Lawn | Lee Valley Regional
< Back 5. New River Lawn 5. New River Lawn Artist Name 00:00 / 01:38 This is the part of the garden that has changed the most since Bowles’s time. Then the main feature was the river, as it curved round, passing under the two bridges. As you looked towards the Tulip Terrace, the river was flanked on the left by a narrow grass verge. It was here that Bowles planted his main collection of irises. MUSIC: (Reprise) Hide & Seek Rag (McConnell - ATV 8B 43) FADE IN AND UNDER To the left of the Wisteria Bridge are three old yew trees. They would have looked more striking in Bowles’ day than they do now. One of the winter jobs he assigned to the Bowles Boys was to peel off any loose bark and scrub the trunks until they glowed a rich crimson. Peter Deering remembers it well. MUSIC: FADE UP FOR A MOMENT THEN UNDER THE FOLLOWING AND FADE OUT ON LAST PIECE OF SYNCH Peter Deering: ,… the drill was to get a bucket of water and scrubbing brushes and you would just scrub and scrub it away and it would just flake off and scrub it clean all shiny bright. It was really great fun. … Narrator: This would have added a dash of colour to the garden in wintertime. It was an idea Bowles got from a visit to Glasnevin Botanic Gardens in Ireland. A Poncirus , or hardy orange, grows opposite the Tulip Terrace. In Bowles’ time it was a rarity. He was given it as a seed from Canon Ellacombe, one of his first gardening mentors. It was Ellacombe who encouraged Bowles to join the Royal Horticultural Society, which played such an important part in his life in later years.

- Alfred Swatton & The Kitchen Gardens | Lee Valley Regional
< Back Alfred Swatton & The Kitchen Gardens Alfred Swatton & The Kitchen Gardens Artist Name 00:00 / 01:40 When Alfred Swatton came to Myddelton House from Kew Gardens, he and his family lived in Augustus Lodge, just outside the Kitchen Garden. Swatton worked here as head gardener for over 40 years – despite the fact that he and Bowles did not always see eye to eye. Once a week Bowles would walk down into the Kitchen Garden for an update on how things were going. Fruit and veg weren’t the only things that were grown here: cut flowers were also grown in the Kitchen Garden. These were picked for the house, and for the local Church, where Bowles was churchwarden for many years. Cornflowers and Gladiolus were favourites, but there was also a large bed of white trumpeted, regal lilies. One gardener, Charlie Smith, remembered that Bowles always made a point of stopping to sniff the lilies . He would walk on, totally unaware that they had left his nose a pollen stained orange colour. There used to be two vast compost heaps in the kitchen garden: one for fresh material and one for mature material. In winter it was not unusual to see four frozen gardeners standing in the steaming mature heap, warming their feet
