May 2010

After the cold winds of April, the weather in Romsey could not be more lovely! It has brought into bloom the wisterias along the walls in the Hazel Garden and the pergola in Abbey House garden is swathed with blooms which smell wonderful.

We are very grateful to the people who came for our Garden Retreats: Margaret and Margaret and Sheila and Heather who worked like troopers clearing weeds and dead foliage. Sincere thanks to you all!

The baskets for the cottage and houses are now being planted up and bedding plants are coming on nicely in the greenhouse. All is looking good for a beautiful show this summer!
