Eyrignac Spring

We made a second visit to the gardens at Eyrignac on Sunday to see how things are moving on.  Whilst the spring flowers are basically over we were in time to see the tulips which are a lovely pure white and a classic shape ( called Triumph Superior - duly noted for next year!)

The Hornbeam hedging has come into leaf in the month since we last visited; it was interesting to see the severely pruned hedges starting to regenerate although they will take two years to regain their proper shape.

In the white garden the first roses were blooming but the full display needs just a little more time.

There were only one or two signs of the frosts we had last week but there are more forecast for later this week!  Doesn't look promising for the flowers this year.
