About the garden

Created in 1958 by the late Bernard Tickner MBE (1924-2017), who spent over 50 years developing it, this award-winning seven-acre garden is an enchanting waterside oasis which offers unusual shrubs, perennials, lilies and marginal plants.

Scented lilies begin a succession of flowering which creates a spectacular show of fragrance and colour in summer. Textures and golden hues illuminate autumn days, and the River Lark and Culford Stream sparkle in winter as snowdrops awaken.

Gifted to the charity Perennial by the late Bernard Tickner, Fullers Mill brings tranquility to visitors while supporting Perennial’s mission to improve the lives of those who work in or are retired from the horticulture industry. Every visit, donation or purchase make a real difference in their lives.
