Rose season at Mottisfont
The walled garden at Mottisfont is home to the National Collection of pre-1900 old-fashioned roses, which reach their peak in early summer. Unlike modern species, old-fashioned roses tend to flower just once a year, so their blooming season is an extraordinary annual sight. Visit in June to see them at their best and you’ll be met with unsurpassed fragrance and colour from thousands of flowers. Over 500 varieties can be found here, complemented by big herbaceous borders which provide changing displays from June-September.
