The Garden Group is organising a self-drive visit to Crookley Pool NGS Garden on Monday 15 June. The cost is £10, payable on arrival in cash. The 3-acre, partly walled garden, built around an old swimming pool, has been in the same family for 3 generations and the wisteria which covers the walls and terraces is about 100 years old. For the past 33 years, interesting and unusual perennials, shrubs and trees, including salvias and tender exotics from the greenhouse, have been planted to create a colourful paradise swarming with wildlife particularly in the wildflower meadow. The address is Blendworth Lane, Horndean, Hampshire, PO8 0AB. If you would like to go, click on the link to contact Peggy Pye by email.
