Mansfield College

The design of this very big south-facing border takes reference from its proximity to the sun-drenched eating area outside the dining room and cafe. A rosemary hedge gives the border structure along with many other herbs. There are more mediterranean type plants here too, teuchrium fruticans for example,  which should provide fragrance for people enjoying the space when the weather allows. A wisteria Black Dragon has been planted to climb the up the southern elevation of the college to replace the fine specimen which had to be removed when the building work was being carried out.
