Come and enjoy a conducted tour of the garden taking in the autumn-flowering Gentians, fine stands of Hydrangeas, Roscoea, Colchicum, Cyclamen, together with autumn colour from Maples, Cercidiphyllum and Disanthus.

I've seen wonderful pictures over FB from the Branklyn, I can only imagine what a treat would be to walk around the gardens when the autumn Gentians are in bloom!
