The walkway to the Sunken Garden is a purple sensation at the moment with the Wisteria blooming. If you’re visiting the Gardens this weekend you really must make sure to see it – it’s an absolute joy to experience 💜✨

Cypripedium ‘Bernd’ is a hybrid between Cypripedium macranthos and Cypripedium segawai. They are commonly called 'Slipper Orchids'.
The flower is usually raspberry pink with darker veins and a white ring near the hoof opening.

Glorious Primula japonica, or candelabra primula, are putting on a fantastic display around Aberglasney at the moment. They are a must see if you plan to visit this week 💖✨
They especially add such vibrancy to the Jubilee Woods and help to bring a range of heights and textures.

Time is running out to book your place at our 25th Anniversary Celebration evening this Friday, 17th May.
🎟 Tickets can be purchased from our office during office hours (01558 668998 option 1) or on our website: aberglasney.org/events-exhibit…

Camassia leichtlinii are looking magnificent in the Stream Garden 🌞✨

These striking plants look fantastic grown in long grass areas and meadows. Large drifts of them can make a dramatic impact, adding colour, height and interest to a space.

The draping racemes of the early flowering Wisteria, which you’ll find on the old cowshed building down at the bottom of the gardens, have a delicate sweet scent that adds an additional layer of intrigue to this area.

Here's a combination of Wisteria sinensis alba & Actinidia kolomikta (variegated-leaf hardy kiwi) in the Upper Walled Garden.
The Wisteria Sinensis is coming into full bloom but the Wisteria arch, alongside the sunken garden, hasn't started flowering just yet.

Tonight the sound of music returns to our Pool Garden and the sun has promised to shine for us 🎶
If you haven't booked a ticket online you can pay at the gate when you arrive tonight. Tickets are £14.50 or members £12.

Gates open 6.30pm

Something we always look forward to in mid-spring at Aberglasney is the arrival of glorious Rhododendron flowers in our Asiatic Garden and Bishop Rudd’s Walk ⛩

They look fantastic contrasted against their shiny lush green foliage, and of course provide a heavenly sweet scent.

The rainmaker must have known we were holding our first Music in the Pool Garden event on Friday and the sun always (almost always!) shines on this monthly event.

Join us on Friday, 10th May, for an evening of music from morganandmelville

The Upper Walled Garden is really quite something special this time of year 🌷
