Southsea Gardens expands to four town gardens this year. All are near to the promenade and are examples of what can be done in an urban setting. 35 and 67 Gains Road are small gardens designed and planted with artistic flair by the owners, inc ferns, bamboo and sculpture. The creative gardeners are keen plantspeople and have made the very most of the limited space in both front and rear gardens with planting of an exceptional standard. 28 St Ronans Avenue is divided into different areas inc a wildflower meadow and pond. Planting is a mixture of traditional and tender plants inc puya, agaves, echeveria, echiums, and tree ferns. Tulips feature in April and alliums in May and June. Recycled items are used to create sculptures.
