 Heritage Rose Garden
The Heritage Rose Garden has been an appealing part of the Gardens since the early 1950’s. It was remodelled in 1999 to provide for a larger collection of plants, together with structures for rose supports and seating areas from which to enjoy the displays.
It contains an extensive collection of modern, old garden and wild roses underplanted with herbaceous perennials providing an interesting display throughout November and December. These roses are noted for their plant form, scent and the multitude of colourful rose hips which are produced in autumn.
