A lovely way to mark National Gardening Day 🌱 Our Friends of the Garden visited @pembroke1347.bsky.social Garden with Head Gardner Sarah Claydon – and picked up plenty of inspiration 🪴 Including a creative sustainability idea: using expired Friends’ membership cards in dead hedging.

A vibrant spring garden divided into two sections. The left side features blooming pink cherry blossoms and a mix of colourful flowers, including daffodils and tulips, under lush trees. The right side shows a serene garden scene with a wooden gazebo surrounded by greenery and more flowering plants.

A split-image shows a garden scene on each side. The left features a historic brick building surrounded by lush greenery and blooming trees. On the right, a path winds around a wattle fence enclosing vibrant foliage and flowering trees.

A split image showcasing two parts of an outdoor garden. On the left, trees are bare or lightly budding, and the ground is covered with yellow and green plants. On the right, trees are in full bloom with pink flowers, surrounded by lush greenery and wildflowers.
