Our creative adventure began in 1999, a new house and a bare plot. We took a break from NGS openings in 2021/22 but we’ll be back in 2023!

Day 5 of the #hostachallenge2022 and here’s one way of keeping your Hostas slug free! Grow them in a #hangingbasket 😂 #hosta #hosta-featherboa #jacarandahostas 💚

@charlotte @flan1971 It might stop the slugs but there’s often some damage done by falling twigs from the bay tree above! 😂😂

Morning Karen. Thanks! This one’s been in a hanging basket for quite a few years and seems happy enough 😀 @KOutdoors

@joannie.a @debs69 It’s a miniature variety that only grows to 10-15cm with a spread of 20-30cm so it’s ideal for a hanging basket 👍

I will have to look out for that one, we live in slug and snail 🐌 central 🤣 so a hanging basket would be a great solution 👍 thanks 🙏🏻 @jacaranda
