It’s just a handful of days until we arrive at the end of September.Why does the ‘season’ always go so fast?! It’s been very dry and the garden borders have really suffered-I only water them when absolutely necessary.

We have done more shows/ fairs this year and seem to have settled into a routine of the ones that we attend. My favourite has to be Upton Park as that is our local, but Athelhampton is lovely too-such a wonderful setting with great organisation thanks to Martin Young of Nectar Plants in Weymouth! I’d recommend anyone who hasn’t been to that plant fair to go next year-the house,gardens and cafe are all worth a visit.

I’d like to remind anyone who is hoping to visit the Nursery here that my opening hours will not cover October, so if you want to come please give me a ring  01202 695256. My A-board will be out sometimes, so obviously anyone is most welcome to go on through that side gate if they see it saying I’m open!

HAPPY GARDENING!   🙂                                  #plants, #gardennursery, #perennials, #broadstone, #gardeningdorset

This weekend we are excited to be setting off to the Dorset County Show near Dorchester for 2 days. Here’s the link for those interested…www.dorsetcountyshow.co.uk/

Next Sunday, the 14th Sept, it’s time for our second trip of the year to sell at the plant fair at Athelhampton House. I love this event as the setting is so atmospheric! You have entry to the house and the lovely gardens too.

On the 21st Sept, our last plant of this season is at Mapperton House near Dorchester. Here’s the link for that event…
