The lilies and crocosmia look hot in all weathers! Peto’s Italian garden is also lovely with splashes of colour from the roses, dahlias and penstemon contrasting with the structural shapes of the box, yew and and Portuguese laurel.
We have been picking veg for sale on Thursdays, fruit for jamming and, who knows, there might be plums for the next Open Day on 21 July!
Volunteers have been working hard to tidy up around the Gardens, with weeds and grass growing strongly as a result of the rains and the dead heads and remains of the spring flowers to remove.
