Trevor Edwards, area organiser of the National Gardens Scheme in Northern Ireland, said a number of new and unique gardens are opening to the public this year. "Many of the gardens are open to all comers on specified dates. For logistical and people management reasons, some are only open to those who have pre-booked online.

Others are only open by arrangement,” he said. Mr Edwards thanked the dedicated garden owners and their helpers for their support and explained that admission fees to the gardens helped to boost a variety of worthy causes. "Apart from the joy of visiting gardens, your visit generates meaningful financial support to the health-related charities supported by the National Garden Scheme,” he said.
