THE garden at 42 Silver Street, Midsomer Norton will be opening for charity this summer as part of the National Garden Scheme (NGS).

The landscape architect and professional gardener owners have developed the half an acre site to include a gravel garden with pond, mixed/herbaceous borders, an elliptical lawn with hot colour planting, informal area with woodland character and experimental bank with intermingled mixed herbaceous planting.

Plants, tea and a selection of homemade cakes are on sale in aid of the NGS.

The garden will open on Sunday, June 28, between 11am until 4pm. Parking will be available at Norton Hill School on Charlton Road, a five-minute walk from the garden.
