Winter Garden Progress

Landscaping at the Winter Garden was completed in April with only key trees and shrubs remaining, forming the foundation of the garden. The spaces opened up will be replanted with a range of trees for winter interest with shrubs, perennials and bulbs grouped beneath them. The planting list includes no fewer than 303 trees and shrubs, 22,375 perennials and 46,780 bulbs. Depending on the funds raised, it is hoped that planting will start this autumn. Meanwhile the open area has been sown with grass and wild flowers.
