The Wild Garden, Long Island NY | by Miranda Brooks

For the ultimate wild garden inspiration look no further than the Miranda Brooks designed gardens at the Long Island home of US Vogue Editor, Anna Wintour. English-born Brooks has created a series of dreamy, romantic gardens and meadows that have the effortless charm of the very finest English gardens but with none of the formality or fuss.

Creating gardens over 40 acres is no mean feat, particularly with all the challenges that an estate of that size can encompass – and then there are the deer – those notorious enemies of gardeners everywhere.

You can read the full interview published in T Magazine (New York Times) and if you have a couple of minutes to spare, this video will whisk you off for a few moments to the wild garden and into Miranda’s world.
