The gardens at Holehird are interesting at every season of the year. In early spring there is a magnificent display of field daffodils. But the full glory of the Lake District is in late spring when flowering trees and shrubs such as magnolias, rhododendrons and azaleas are at their best. The herbaceous borders and island beds in the walled garden take over in summer and continue into autumn with a brilliant and constantly changing kaleidoscope of colour. The National Collections of astilbes and hydrangeas are dazzling in late summer and autumn. Violas produces a late flush of flowers and shrub roses such as 'Bonica' continue flowering even to the end of the year. Beds of gentians produce their striking blue, backed by the brilliant folliage of spindle trees. Holehird is great! |
