We are always in search of new plants for the garden and needed a few to fill in some of the gaps in the border along the terrace – a strip we refer to as the “Trench” given that’s how it started. We have been to Bonsall a few times, stopped and talked, seen gardens, but never been to the plant centre there until now. Oh, what a treat! How did we manage to miss that? It is jam packed with perennials of all sorts – foxgloves, many geraniums we haven’t got (umm, now have), several thalictrum varieties, clematis and loads and loads more. A cottage gardener’s delight, reasonably priced, great looking plants that appear very well looked after, hardy (the nursery is at 900 feet above sea level and not well sheltered) and with a tremendous view across the valley.
