Core Collection

Clumber's beautiful 4 acre Walled Kitchen Garden grows hundreds of varieties of fruit, vegetables and herbs, with stunning herbaceous borders, a rose garden and cut flower borders which produce colour and scent across the seasons.  


It's also home to the longest stretch of glasshouse cared for by the National Trust and the Museum of Gardening Tools. Here on the blog, our gardeners will update you on the latest comings and goings in the garden - what's being planted, what's in season and who's up to no good...


Photographed today - the apple blossom is looking good.  


From right to left in the foreground are three Nottinghamshire varieties - 'Malster', 'Bramley's Seedling' and 'Domino' - part of our collection of East Midlands and Yorkshire  varieties.  

We need some sunny days and frost-free nights over the next few weeks to ensure blossom is pollinated and fruits are formed. Fingers crossed this rain stops!


Look out on the Clumber Park website for info on our Apple Festival later in the year.
