The Seasons - Summer

 
 

Spring | Summer | Autumn | Winter
 

 
  In summer, the leaves are thick and green. The garden is less colourful but with more shades of green. Sadly, the deer (Roe Deer and Munjac) eat most of the flowers. Click here to see our list of plants that the deer do NOT eat. However, in summertime an abundance of insect life emerges - butterflies, damselflies, dragonflies, bees and wasps.

See below for some of our summer flowers and wildlife. Click on the images to see a bigger picture or click on the links to find out more information.
