The Shrub Area

This is a view out into the shrub area. Despite the weather, everything has grown well and we still have some good colour.

Display Garden

Now entering its fifth year, everything has grown away nicely.
The black bamboo suffered during the really cold winter but is coming back nicely. The yellow bamboo has filled in all the gaps.

Cyclamen

One of the best autumn flowering plants for containers and baskets. Will tolerate temperatures down to freezing, but best moved indoors in November.

Orchid

Lots more choice in varieties this year as interest grows in these fairly easy to look after houseplants.
Rainwater weekly during summer less in winter, good light and an orchid feed every month keeps them flowering for ages.
