  • Our summer floral display continues to provide us with an amazing array of colours and to further extend this colourful season we have begun to plant our first garden chrysanthemums. You can notice a subtle change in the garden as the nights cool down and the day time temperatures don’t quite reach the highs of summer. The temperatures and light conditions make for ideal garden viewing so now is a great time to come out to experience the beauty of our garden.
