Janet Blow, with some of the heleniums at Yew Tree House
The NATIONAL Plant Collection of heleniums at Yew Tree House Hankelow, near Audlem, is open to the public this weekend, August 11 and 12.
Owner of the collection, Janet Blow, said: “After such a dull and wet summer it’s great to see the sizzling hot colours of the heleniums in full bloom.
The local bees and butterflies are also flocking to them to enjoy the feast of nectar.”
The garden is open from 2 – 5pm each day. Entry is £2.50.
