Moss Park Gardens - Timperley

2022

This summer we have experienced some very hot, dry weather.  The garden has held up well, although a few plants have had to be cut down early to try to preserve them.  We are looking at planting for dry conditions in the future.  

Early in the year we planted a new Rowan tree to commemorate the Queen's Platinum Jubilee, and it is doing well.  Have a look for it along the main path through the gardens.

Fritilleria Imperialis, known as Crown Imperial, spring bulbs native to mountainous regions of Turkey, western Iran and east from there.

The gardens are still colourful at the end of September:

   Eupatorium

The daffodils and tulips made a great show again in the spring:

Spring and summer 2020

During the Covid19 lockdown, we invited children to paint a stone and leave it in the gardens.  We were delighted with the beautiful painted stones that were left on the old tree stumps and will try to preserve them for the future.  We were also pleased to see that our new hare, sculpted from an old tree trunk, has been very popular.
