On a blooming lovely day . . .

Plant lovers took advantage of the glorious sunshine in the delightful setting of historic Hoghton Tower on Saturday.

The Tower teamed up with Plant Hunters’ Fairs for the spring treat – with the entrance fee in aid of Hoghton Tower Preservation Trust who use all funds raised directly for the benefit of the venue.

“All our nurseries attending are always happy to offer expert advice to help less experienced gardeners select the right plants for their gardens.”

She added: “For true ‘plantaholics’ there are always those little treasures to discover that can’t be obtained elsewhere.”
