As the weekend of the festival is such a busy one for garden owners and club members this enables them to have a look at all the gardens on display for this year.

This year the standard of the gardens is exceptional and some gardens are opening for the first time.

Of course there are always some old favorites that the public love to come back to.

“Laadarra” is one of our favorites and the gardens owners Rhonda and Maurie Laarhoven  have added a beautiful new fountain for this year. The displays in this smaller garden are always outstanding.
