The redbud "Forest Pansy is just finishing bloom. The flowers finish soon and then we have the stunning purple foliage.

11th May 01

Some of the woodland phlox are are great ground covers. Some are amazingly fragrant too. Look for names like "Clouds of Perfume", "Fuller's White". They are relatively trouble free early woodland flowers.

11th May 01

Joy! Oh Joy!  Flowers on the Chinese wisteria and in record time too. This specimen started flowering after three years. With careful pruning there is no reason it won't continue every year for a lifetime. We will prune it in about two weeks time. It's on the entrance to our cafe.

11th May 01

Our woodland walk is ablaze with color at the moment. All kinds of ground covers are break out. The fragrance from the Daphne and viburnum is indescribable 

6th May 01

One of the most fragrant viburnums. The Korean spice, Burkwood or Judd varieties all have the most exquisite odor.

 

6th May 01

A carpet of forget me nots is really a remarkable sight. These little plants seed themselves all over the woodland. They are now at their best.

6th May 01

Texas Scarlet quince is now in full bloom. They are so easy to grow and tolerate our tougher soil conditions

2nd May 01 

Our front entrance garden budding out. The delicate foliage of the Japanese maples is exquisite

2nd May 01 

The glorious "Snowfountains"  Cherry in flower in front of our cafe. The small tree is very hardy and reliable. It has a very pretty weeping shape and very suitable for small gardens. Less prone to disease than the common pink varieties. 
29th April 01
Ice Follies Daffodils are so easy to grow. The deer will not eat them. If they are in good soil they will increase in numbers every  year. Always let the foliage die down naturally.

25th April 01

This is something special it is the variegated Brunnera. The lowers remind me of forget - me nots . But what amazing foliage. Youy can find these beauties on our woodland walk.

25th April 01

This is a more unusual hellebore. It is the stinking variety. It has a tremendous texture to it. Its light green flowers come up very early. 

25th April 01

The white forsythia in full flower. It is beautiful and now extremely fragrant.

 

23rd April 01

Our woodland area is bursting full of color. All the bulbs seem to have exploded over the last few days. 

19th April 01

This is the Daphne mezureum. It's a little late in flowering this year. It tends to be an upright shrub and can be a little short lived. This one is doing very well on our cafe Terrace.

 19th April 01

We have a terrific selection of hosta. We have always got a great selection of new and unusual varieties

13th April 01

Some flowers just can wait. Here my son Anatoli is struggling to show off the Japanese Butterburr. A big aggressive foliage plant with a lovely variegation in the leaves. However way before the leaves appear it sends up the flower heads and here is one of them.

13th April 01

The little Siberian squill spread all over our woodland garden. Forget tulips and other vulnerable bulbs that get eaten by the animals , these are brilliant.

13th April 01

I love these Iris reticulata. Every time we have transplanted a shrub we seem to have spread them around the garden center. The are popping up in all kinds of places.
We have lots of great evergreens for your garden. It's a good idea to fill your garden with a range of plant material and evergreens are particularly important because the are so cheery in the long winter months
