Britain's What's On Event Guide
Marksbury Avenue Gardens - Open Garden for NGS
Although of similar size, these four neighbouring gardens in Kew are all very different. At No. 26 you will find many New Zealand natives. Fruit trees abound, with plums, figs, apples, red and black currants, apricots, mulberry, feijoa, loquat and citrus, alongside a delicate chamomile lawn. Over the road at No. 59, the garden has evolved largely through its own propagation and self-seeding. Shade is provided by a variety of ornamental trees, which lead to a lower patio and a small vegetable patch. No. 60 is a typical town garden where visitors can enjoy a fine display of patio roses, flowering shrubs and climbers, inc numerous varieties of clematis displayed around a curved lawn. Next door at No.
