Dursley Garden Over Winter

Wandering around the winter garden at Dursley yesterday, and the Hellebores are the main feature this month. The daffodils are starting to make their show, along with the hundreds of delicate snowdrops. Mostly the lower, more subtle plants at the moment. Judith says the MID AUGUST ONWARDS is the best time to visit to see the best of the daffodils and other bulbs. The show goes on for months. It really is worth planning your visit soon, especially while this weather is so gorgeous. Then come back again in spring for tulips etc etc!! Have a great day. RC

Hellebores under the trees - masses of them!

Some of the daffodil areas are just coming into flower - late July

Peak season for daffodils at Dursley is from mid-August

Welcome to Dursley Garden

Dursley is a large country garden surrounding a family home, and is open to the public. The owner and 'Head Gardener' is Judith Callaghan. Judith welcomes garden visitors through-out the year, as the garden changes significantly from season to season.

The large nature of the garden means there are expansive plantings of various plants featuring at any one time - from roses, and perennials in summer, to daffodils, tulips and hellebores in winter and spring. Visit the pages below for more detail, and to see some of the feature plantings at Dursley.

For those who adore good old fashioned hospitality and country gardens, Judith would love to see you.............
