April
Bulbs in Full Bloom
April is one of the best months to visit, with tulips across the beds before the canopy fills in.
Tulips bring colour and drama into the garden with their distinctive flowers.
“All the narcissi are fully in bloom. All the tulips will emerge and tend to bloom from late March to mid April,” says Phoebe. That overlap means beds feel full, with layers of colour at different heights. Alliums send up strong stems ready for flowering in late spring.
What to look for
– Tulips along paths and within the parterres
– Allium stems rising cleanly through other planting
– Narcissi at their best
March

March brings the first daffodils and narcissi. Come early to catch the garden before the crowds arrive.
May
Dramatic Wisteria
May is the month many people wait for. Blossoms drape across the pergolas and the scent fills the space.
June
Roses and Alliums
Blooms bring the garden to life in the summer, with a sea of colour and a fragrant scent.
