The
first garden with its choice of patios, a large pond and woodland walk was ‘loaned’ to us for holding a fundraiser for our
allotment. Rainbow Allotment is for
adults with physical and learning difficulties.

We held a traditional garden party in this wonderfully landscaped garden
which, helped by the lovely summer weather, proved to be a financial and social
success.
The
second garden was Breezy Knees, near York, which we chose to visit for our
anniversary.
We had previously visited this garden in October and enjoyed the autumn planting. We were really lucky with the weather and this time we were able to experience a different range of flowers.
The fact that I managed to find two plants in the nursery which had been on my to-buy list for ages (sedum Red Cauli and eupatorium Little Joe) and will serve as a memento of our anniversary was a bonus. Breezy Knees is well worth a visit and an RHS card means the holder gets in free.

The second picture from below is wonderful!
