It was lovely to welcome lots of visitors and their children this week – we are open every Thursday and on Sunday 20th August will have lots of extra fun activities for children. And our visitors were treated to an abundance of butterflies, enjoying the buddleia, the lavender hedges, the dahlia border and other flowers, particularly in the Italian Garden and in the walled kitchen garden.
It was a hot day for gardening, but our volunteers are hardy and managed lots of weeding and deadheading, worked on the pump for the well and cleared the new spiral feature.
