Rose care
If you have roses, by now many will have finished their first flush of flowers. Remember to fertilise your roses to encourage a second flush and remove dead and faded flowers. The rose field at Clyst St. Mary is still open and if you visit during the week you'll see the nurserymen budding next years stock.

Customers at St. Bridget Nurseries have raised £139.52 for Hospiscare.
During Go Orange week (June 10th-17th) St Bridget's ran two competitions - at Clyst they had guess how many oranges are in the pot, Mrs B.
