37 Crescent Road

A romantic garden. In spring tulips abound amongst euphorbias and forget-me-nots. In summer, an abundance of geraniums, foxgloves and allium fill the front borders. Go past the potting shed, under the vine arch you arrive in the garden filled with herbaceous plants, roses and clematis, a magnet for bees and butterflies. Gravel paths lead to secret corners with seating.

About 37 Crescent Road

A new garden which shows maturity beyond its years! In spring, Myra’s passion for tulips is evident in the borders and pots. In summer, an abundance of geraniums, foxgloves, and alliums fill the border at the front of the house to welcome you, and are often admired by passers by. Through the side gate, past the potting shed and herb bed, under the vine arch and you are in the main garden.

It was a blank canvas in 2018 and Myra decided to design a pie shape in the middle of a rectangular garden overflowing with interesting herbaceous plants, roses and clematis and a magnet to bees and butterflies, as well as beds on three sides of the garden. Newly planted with trees (Amelanchier, Prunus subhirtella ‘Autumnalis’, silver birch) at the end of 2018, and plants in early 2019, it has quickly established itself.

Gravel paths wind around the beds giving an element of surprise behind each bend. Seating is in various places around the garden, under the rose covered arbour, in the revamped shed that was left here (lovingly restored by Tim) and on the veranda which overlooks the garden. There are raised vegetable beds which Myra uses as cutting beds for tulips in the spring, making full use of last years’ tulips in her many pots before growing on beans, courgettes, beetroot etc., usually with help from her grandchildren.

Home-made teas available. Plants for sale.
