ngs Yellow book gardens - Little Larford.

[alicat]

O n Sunday 29th April. I visited my first Yellow book Garden of this year. It was advertised in Amateur Gardening Magazine two weeks ago and because it was on my doorstep I decide that it would make a great afternoon out. The write up said that the owners had planted 17,000 tulip bulbs throughout the ½ acre garden mixed with other spring flowering plants. There was also woodland to walk through, if you wished, although I didn’t because I had my mum with me who is disabled and not very well at the moment.
It was a lovely garden and certainly opened your eyes to the vast amount of tulips that you can choose from for your garden.
These are some of my favourite pictures.











































Sorry there are so many, between us, that is my daughter and I, we took about 60 photos. It was really hard to pick out the best.
On the way home I asked my daughter if she enjoyed her afternoon out and she replied Yes, and could we have some tulips in our garden. - So later this year we will be choosing our bulbs for next year. - It’s lovely to have someone so young to share my love of gardens.

If anyone has visited an ngs garden please feel free to add it to this thread.

Yes it was the same garden. It's beautiful Ali - lucky you to live so close. The owner is an ex nuseryman and he changes his scheme 3 times a year so there will be another look entirely if you go for the summer open day Ali.

Hi All for some reason or another I never did get round to replying to you - Sorry.

It was a great day out, but unfortunatly I never went back again this year. - maybe I can visit again next year.

Anyway There is still time to plant you Tulip Bulbs if you haven't done so already. So pinging this up again.
