Holehird Gardens is open for visitors but, regrettably, it is not possible to reopen Visitor Reception at this time. This means that visitors will not be able to buy hot drinks or publications during their visit, nor seek advice or information from our volunteer wardens. However, they will have the opportunity to buy plants as usual. Visitor toilets are open, being cleaned on a daily basis, with hand sanitiser available at exit doors.
Visitors are asked to ensure social distancing and hygiene measures are observed during their visit, as the safety and health of our volunteers and visitors remains a priority.
We hope you enjoy your visit to Holehird Gardens. We ask all visitors to make a donation of £5 to help with the upkeep of the garden and this, as usual, may be deposited in the collection boxes situated in the car park (close to the sign board) and outside the door to Visitor Reception. Your donations are appreciated more than ever at this time.
To mark the 50th anniversary of the LHS, our volunteer gardeners were asked to select their favourite plants amongst all those to be found at Holehird. Their 50 favourites are shown in this book. The book is illustrated with photographs taken at Holehird by our volunteers and the description of each plant includes growing information. Gold labels mark the “Gardeners’ Choice” in the garden. Many of the plants have also been grown for sale at Holehird - look out for same gold label on the pots in the plant sales area.
Price: £5.50.
All facilities at Holehird Gardens remain closed and will not be reopened until we can safely do so. The priority for the LHS continues to be the safety of our volunteers, visitors and the local community. It is important that government guidelines on reducing contact with other people in order to control the virus and save lives are followed.
The latest government advice tells us all to stay alert and restrict contact with other people in order to control the virus and save lives. The priority for the LHS is to ensure the safety of our volunteers, visitors and the local community. We, therefore, continue to ask visitors not to come to Holehird Gardens at this time. All our facilities are currently closed, and will remain so until it is safe to reopen them.
We believe it is important that everybody follows government advice to stay home and avoid unnecessary travel to restrict the spread of coronavirus. It is with great regret, therefore, that we ask people not to visit Holehird Gardens at this time. We will reverse this advice as soon as it becomes safe to do so.
