I frequently visit the library in a local park and then look around the walled garden when it's open mid mornings. There's a rose garden in front of the library and another within the walled garden as well as rambling roses that are growing on the old walls. There are labels on most of the plants and there's usually someone working in the garden who will give me information about the plants that are growing there when asked. The different areas of the garden were recently looking beautiful. It was good to see one flower bed had been dug over and some heathers had just been added. The walled garden continues to evolve with something new to see each season as well as enjoy the established areas.
