This pergola started life in another part of the garden. Then we built the oriental pagoda and two wooden structures so close together didn't look right. I had been trying to think of some "gateway" for this part of the garden but didn't want trees or conifers - this was perfect. We measured up and dug the holes and carried the archway down the garden and placed it in the holes - it stood up straight and level - as though it had always been there!

Your garden is amazing.

Thanks - I've just found a book "Succession planting for adventurous gardeners" . It written by Christopher Lloyd, of Great Dixter, and describes exactly what we do - we keep pruning and letting different plants have their moments - the garden is like a giant orchestra! Things are crammed together but we prune very heavily in June, in addition to winter time.
