Spring Arrives in the Gardens

One of the joys of early spring at Holme is spotting the first seasonal treasures emerging throughout the gardens.

The delicate flowers of Snake's Head Fritillaries are beginning to appear, bringing their distinctive chequered blooms to the borders and naturalised areas.

Alongside them, the fresh green fronds of Shuttlecock Ferns are slowly unfurling, adding texture and interest as the garden awakens after winter.

These fleeting moments are often some of the most rewarding for keen gardeners and nature lovers, offering a reminder that a new gardening season is underway.

If you're visiting during spring, keep an eye out for these seasonal highlights as you explore the gardens.
