Spring has truly sprung in Crescent Garden!
Following a wonderful display of snowdrops in January and February, the sun and mild weather in March has brought out a stunning array of flowers. The excessive rain during 2024 must have agreed with the development of the primroses, as we have had a magnificent display of the natural cream and the very pale pink primroses in many places. You don’t normally see so many primroses like this East of Devon!
 
The white periwinkle (Vinca minor alba) growing in the ‘Jubilee garden’ has flowered continuously from January/February and is still putting on a lovely show into April.
 
The delicate rush daffodils, Narcissus jonquilla are looking beautiful in the west end Repton basket and in the bed around the Ginkgo biloba.
 
In more hidden areas of the Garden, Epimediums and Snakes Head Fritillary (Fritillaria meleagris) are popping up in the more wooded areas of the garden.
