Dear KFOTT Member,
We are delighted to announce details of our first Day Trip of the season and extend an invitation for members and guests to join us for entry to the gardens and Guided Tour. Nymans Grade II* listed garden is one of the great 20th century gardens with beauty, colour and interest all year round, with a fascinating collection of beautiful and rare plant from all over the world. Ancient woods, lakes, avenues and cascades. Our garden tour will be led by experienced and knowledgeable garden guides. The tours include seasonal highlights, including stars of the Nymans collection. The guide will also share the Nymans story, which includes a brief history of the Messel family and their home, how the gardens were created and how it is being cared for now.
