DAY TRIPS - 2019 

Savill Garden, Windsor Great Park

Saturday 18th May 2019

Our initial trip of the year takes us to the renowned Savill Garden, 35 acres of many gardens combined into one.
Described on its website as a "tranquil place to discover rare plants from around the world, arranged in stunning seasonal displays"  -  sounds just what we like!                     
     
                                                     Wick Lane, Englefield Green, Egham. TW20 0UJ

They were originally created by Sir Eric Savill between 1932-1939, then opened to the public in 1951. Starting with just
10 hectares Sir Eric created a woodland and bog garden. The natural stream still runs through the gardens supplying two extensive ponds with fringe bog planting.

SAVILL GARDEN LEAFLET

Prospect House & High Garden Nursery, Devon

Tuesday 3rd September 2019

A specialist salvia grower’s garden, followed by a large nursery stocking  unusual plants—what more could you ask for in a Day Trip late in the growing season?

The owner of Prospect House is a very keen Salvia enthusiast who has planted more than 200 Salvia varieties amongst the rare shrubs and late flowering perennials in this one acre garden. This makes it a superb garden to visit especially in September. There are stunning views over the Axe Valley. There will also be a plant stall run by Jo Fox of Fox’s Plants, selling Salvias and other perennials. If you wish to pre-order any plants then contact Jo at www.foxplants.com and collect them on the day. Don’t leave it until the last  minute.

Please bring a packed lunch to eat on the coach as we travel between venues.

Next, we visit High Garden Nursery, Kenton — A large nursery packed with the extraordinary and the unusual, and with a garden attached – 5 acres in all.    Especially impressive are the deep double herbaceous borders.

* Entrance and refreshments at both venues
