Garden Visit to Abbotsbury Sub Tropical Garden
The July garden visit was to Abbotsbury Sub Tropical Gardens in Dorset. Set in a sheltered valley along side the Jurassic Coast, the garden was full of colour.
The most vivid blue Hydrangenas
Kookaburras
The top pond was full of Koi carp and a duck with her ducklings.
The coach included several new members which was nice for the committee to see.
