Britain's What's On Event Guide
St Stephens Avenue Gardens - Open Garden for NGS
Only five doors apart, these two town gardens have been developed in totally different but equally inspiring ways, from an innovative drought tolerant front garden full of Achilleas, Eryngiums and self seeding perennials, to paths winding through borders packed with richly scented roses, clematis, flowering shrubs and hardy plants. The garden at no 20 has been a labour of love since 1993. A series of rooms entices visitors to explore. Specimen trees and fragrant climbers blur the boundaries and provide peaceful seclusion. Colourful patio containers, hostas, wildlife pond, seating in sun and shade, home-made cakes and teas served in the conservatory, WC.
