Monday morning magic Exbury Gardens & Steam Railway The herbaceous borders are still looking glorious; vibrant, varied, full of texture, colour, form, foliage & flower. Outstanding.

Standard Saturday Exbury Gardens & Steam Railway …

The awesomeness of geo-injecting biochar & mycorrhoriza directly to the rootzone; whilst at the same time the compressed air decompacts the soil & literally breathes new life into the tree. Watch the soil physically lift! Amazing work happening today Exbury Gardens & Steam Railway.

Party trick time! … no, not mine!! … Edgeworthia chrysantha ‘Grandiflora’s of course! …

Hard to imagine given all the drizzling, freezing rain today, that for a very brief moment this morning, the sun came out! … and I was able to capture this! Magnolia campbellii is always the first out of the starting blocks in spring. What a joy! 💕

Perfection Exbury Gardens & Steam Railway. Not much more to say really - the joyous cascading fountains of blossom covered branches of a staggeringly large Malus transitoria. Not a blemish on a petal, not a petal yet to fall… alive with bees and with a birdsong backdrop announcing Spring.

Loved doing this! Thanks for having me Exbury Gardens & Steam Railway Emma Mason PR Marie-Louise Agius 😊

Amazing programme Rebecca Parker , thank you 🙏🏻 🚂

…about this weekend…

Interesting side-effect of the long, cold spring is that some plants which are flowering late are catching-up with those whose body clocks aren’t out of sync…perfect example here Exbury Gardens & Steam Railway cloud pruned azaleas are flowering at the same time as the epic wisteria.

I’m going to coin the collective noun of a squiggle of tadpoles!! Never seen such a swarm of them…clouds, rivers even! Also quite chuffed with the amateur wildlife filming! Exbury Gardens & Steam Railway
