Mount Ephraim Gardens have a large collection of spring bulbs, trees and shrubs including Rhododendrons, many types of Camellias and Magnolias.

Based on an ancient labyrinth called a Mizmaze (Mary Dawes, who lived at Mount Ephraim for sixty years, was always known to family and friends as 'Miz').

The long herbaceous border, has a brick wall giving wind shelter and it provides colour throughout the flowering season.

The arboretum was planted to commemorate the late Mary Dawes' 80th birthday and also the 300 years of the family's ownership of Mount Ephraim.

Sited on an artificially raised mound, the area gives far views of Blean woods, Hernhill church and the Miz Maze.
