Spring has sprung in the formal garden, and our dedicated volunteers have been busy working their magic! They’ve tackled the weeding of the formal beds, borders, and even the rockery, ensuring a clean slate for the rest of the growing season. They’ve also been giving our established bushes in the borders a careful prune, encouraging healthy growth and beautiful blooms.
However, due to council budget controls, we’ve had to make some adjustments to our usual planting schedule. This year, the vibrant summer bedding displays you might be accustomed to seeing will be a little less extensive.
But fear not, plant lovers! This isn’t the end of the story for our formal beds. Discussions are underway to explore alternative planting options for the future. We’re committed to keeping this space a source of beauty and interest throughout the year.
Stay tuned for further updates on the future of the formal garden!
