Garden Talks: A Bed Full of Roses

Led by our Senior Gardener, this relaxed, informal talk invites you to explore the garden at your own pace while learning about the rose varieties once lovingly cultivated here — and those that still bloom today. From heritage planting to personal stories, you’ll discover what makes these roses such a cherished part of Nostell’s living legacy.
