End of Season Weeding

Final Weeding for first season herbaceous planting

The herbaceous perennial beds just inside the gates of the walled garden have had a successful first season providing plenty of colour and interest to the visitors as they first step into the garden. The volunteer gardening group have been giving the beds a final careful weeding, leaving areas around the plants to self-seed.

The group blitz the garden every other Thursday and volunteers are most welcome throughout the winter months to help prepare the garden for reopening to visitors in April. 

After finishing the flower beds they moved on to the 'veg patch' , tidying up the beds in the late autumn sunshine.
