About

BULBS, BUDS AND BLOOMS

Join us for a walking tour of the gardens at Hillsborough Castle with Garden Manager Claire Woods at this exciting time of the year when everything is bursting into bloom.  Discover early bulbs in flower and the magnificent magnolias and camellias, and learn about the history, plants and people who shaped and planted the gardens.  We recommend sturdy footwear as paths can be rough and the route will involve steep steps.  Booking required.  

Date: Wednesday 16th March 2022

Time: 10.30

Location: Meet in the Weston Pavilion at the Lower Visitor Centre
