We are very pleased to confirm that after the recent warm weather our garden is now full of beautiful spring colour.

The wonderful new leaves of the Japanese maples are increasing daily. The azalea flowers have been delayed by the previous cold weather but will begin to arrive in large numbers during the next two weeks. During the last few days the camellia and tulip flowers and new red leaves of the pieris plants have been particularly beautiful.

We will be delighted to welcome visitors to our Charity Garden Open days:
May 11 Saturday (10am-5pm)
May 12 Sunday (10am-5pm)
May 18 Saturday (10am-5pm)
May 19 Sunday (10am-5pm)

In late autumn colourful views are created in our garden by contrasting foliage alone. It is just as if some of the colour change in the autumn leaves has turned them into 'autumn flowers'!

Photo taken early morning between rain showers (October 30).
As in this photo, in most years many of the golden yellow leaves of the coral bark maples have fallen by the end of October and have given way to autumn finale by the crimson red colours of the remaining Japanese maples.

The red flower and the small cluster of pink flowers are Schizostylis coccinea native plants of South Africa. They are members of the Iris family and commonly known as Kaffir lilies. Although late autumn colours in our garden are mainly from foliage, tree bark and berries, the Kaffir lilies have been a wonderful addition to our autumn garden. This year they have been long flowering and they do not seem to have minded the autumn air frosts.

Summer meets autumn! The garden begonia flowers have given a beautiful display this year. However, within a few days we will need to take out all the begonia plants, remove the foliage and flowers and place the tubers into safe storage away from severe autumn and winter frosts. Then we will be ready for the drama and beauty of the autumn foliage colours....especially the Japanese maples which will become our "autumn flowers".

Photo taken early evening. This is the view enjoyed by our charity open garden visitors today.

There was no rain today and we hope the weather is just as good for our second autumn garden open day (10am - 5pm) tomorrow!

P.s. We are delighted to say that in total we had 157 visitors over the two days raising £507 for the National Garden Scheme.
