I'm sure that everyone in the UK knows that Ashwood also has cyclamen, but for me I just knew they were famous for hellebores. Here's some photos of outdoor garden and stock house.
And two more photos of interest

Thats a super hederifolium in pic 7 with the dark line on every point, I bet it was a stock plant.

Lovely photos Terry. It's lovely to go behind the scenes and see their stock plants isn't it. I've seen the double flowered persicum stock plant there before....don't know if I like it. Does it appeal to you? Love the little sleeping pixie, I remember you taking that....cute isn't it. We have a visit there from the Midland meeting of the Cyclamen Society next week...must remember my camera

Pat, yes these were mostly stock plants I believe. Tim got me a tour of this and the hellebores and it was not disappointing at all. Dee, I an not sure I care for the double persicum either but it was worth a photo. I do love the sleeping pixie. She looks like she is clothed in hederifolium leaves and hat. Now that would be a great addition to the garden, wouldn't it?
