The Fernery

There have been many changes to the Fernery Garden since the 2019 Welwyn Festival Open Garden and the Garden looks beautiful now at all times of the year.

All major restoration work has been completed and a ‘rustic bridge’ has been installed.

All the beds are well stocked and we have many named varieties of ferns.

We are grateful to the Welwyn Festival Committee for allowing us to promote the Open Fernery Garden as part of a resuscitated Welwyn Festival Autumn Programme. We wish them every success and encouragement.

50% of the Entrance Monies taken this evening will be donated to the Festival Committee for the benefit of Welwyn’s charities.
