Garden of Bill Noble
Norwich, VT
About
Originally a hillside farm with a rambling house, barns, stone walls, and fields, enhanced with views of neighboring farms and distant mountains, the garden has grown to include perennial and shrub borders, rock gardens, a vegetable garden, and orchard.
The main flower garden began as an old- fashioned mixed border, inspired by the gardens of the nearby Cornish Artist’s Colony. Remnants of barn foundations offer settings for alpine and rock garden plants, ferns, and other specialty plants grown primarily for foliage value.
Plantings have recently expanded with new shrub borders and meadow plantings. The garden is chronicled in Noble’s book, Spirit of Place: The Making of a New England Garden.
