Nymans forms one of a group of gardens in the Sussex Weald which
were created before the First World War and are still beautiful
today, their owners sharing a passion for new material brought back
from all over the world by intrepid plant hunters. Ludwig Messel
bought Nymans in 1890 and, with his head gardener, James Comber,
began extensive planting of exotics, determined to prove that many
supposedly tender plants could grow outdoors in Sussex. After 1915,
his son, Leonard, carried on planting and raising new hybrids. In
1954 the garden was bequeathed to the National Trust. This historic
garden is undoubtedly one of our national treasures and this book
pays tribute to its history and beauty.
