Anyone who has visited a large old garden and seen the twisted remnant shrubs and big old trees in it may wonder about their past and worry about their future. The lumps and bumps on the ground and half-buried lines of stone may reveal clues to previous garden beds and structures. Old photographs may show a house in a luxuriant setting where we see only remnant trees and shrubs, and evidence of many phases of rise and decline. The study of a mature garden is inexorably linked to the study of the plants grown within it, as much as it is to an understanding of the people who made the garden and those who altered it and recorded it in successive generations.
