Structure is important in the winter garden. We have had another wonderful and varied delivery of conifers from Mark Harvey (Swanborough Conifers) on 25th October. Mark is an acknowledged expert. We have made a display of these in the yard between the glass houses.
There are also some interesting specimens in the shrub section which you’ll find on the right, next to the chickens.
We’ll post a permanent list of the varieties we have on our website in a few days’ time. Meantime a few photos for you.
