should we just call it Dropsey?
Another newbie with this dreadful affliction…I’ve been enjoying your photos, descriptions and top 10 lists. If you were asked to draw up a top 5 or top 10 of gardens to visit what would be on it?Down in Sussex, in the hinterland at least, snowdrops are thin on the ground. Over the last couple of years, I’ve only got around 5 or 6 gardens. The favourites were- Colesbourne Park for its swathes of snowdrops, romantic setting and an interesting selection of rarer drops , if rather tiddly clumps.- Beeches (?) at the latest CGS Snowdrop Day – very restful garden with large number of specialist dropsRegards, Malcolm.Sussex, High Weald.
I see you're still waiting for a response to your question about good snowdrop gardens, Malcolm. Since I'm miles away in Aberdeen, I'm not in a great position to help yoiu.... but the Snnowdrop festival websites must be a good starting place every year... and the gardens which were open this year, for instance, will still be listed so you can make a note for next season.
I've been contemplating Cambo Estates tour/lunch. I do have west coast connections, so Scottish gardens are not out of the question.Thanks, Malcolm.
We could do with an English version of the Visitscotland Snowdrop Festival to gather all the snowdrop garden information into one place.
