Thanks flutterbug! I have only been to Blithewold for the Daffodil Days event last year but I can tell you that the gardens look interesting to visit other times of year. I could see perennials, ornamental grasses starting in various gardens, and they have an neat rock garden. There were signs of a cutting and annual garden. They have the a restored greenhouse with tropical plants. Plus the grounds have interesting trees and shrubs (most labeled) including a giant sequoia on the property. So I think it is worth it to visit other times of year I just haven't gotten down there yet. They also sponsor special gardening events throughout the year too. Sue
