Yes, all photos are taken from my garden, but no, we are not open for the NGS. Although this year we are open for members of the British Conifer Society on Sep 1st and by appointment only for anyone on Sep 2nd. Details on BCS website.

Hi Bluespruce, great photos. I've never really appreciated conifers, I've really only seen them used as a substitute for fencing.
The mixture of colours and shapes here is fantastic.

wow what a beautiful garden you have so much colour and texture, really stunning - my mum would love it she has lots of conifers and evergreen plants in her garden,- but being a florist i only have two small ones in pots, i save the space in my garden for flowering plants - but even not being a fan of conifers myself i can really appreciate what you have done with them. absolutely beautiful!

Bluespruce, this photo simply blows me away! I'm sure you'll win some conifer converts with this one. Dan

I came back to this picture to add it to my favourites.
Such a great mix of coloured foliage.
Congratulations on this garden design and the photo itself.
Could you please give some details of the low-growing plants ~ including the creamy ones and purples. Thanks.

Terratoonie, the low growing plants are all heathers, the golden/yellow heathers are a variety of the winter heath Erica carnea, the purple ones are summer flowering Calluna vulgaris varieties.

Thanks. Bluespruce.
I hadn't realised the heathers came in so many shades.
You planned the plot well to get such a good colour scheme.

That blue spruce is one of the prettiest I have ever seen. All of these colors are splendid!
What else?

Is this your garden? and if so - are you open for the NGS?
