The whole garden at Goltho is looking good at the moment, most of the roses are out in full bloom and the scent as you wander around this romantic area nearly knocks you out, they are just dripping from the trees and arches. It has been an exceptional year for blossom even as you drive around the county the hedgerows are full of lovely flowers.
The wild flower meadow is also in its prime with the buttercups and dog daisies out, the hard-heads are coming up to flower and we also have a small group of naturalising orchids, it is great just strolling along the winding path. The meadow is an important part of the garden as it encourages butterflies and bees which seem to be in a decline at the moment and this week Wednesday June 10 to Sunday June 14 we are encouraging people to create their own butterfly haven so come along and have a chat with our local Butterfly Society who will be here to answer any questions.
I visted the garden a week ago and was delighted not only with the variety and colour choices but also with Debbie's extensive knowledge. Well worth a visit.
