Brugmansias, Desert Plants & Climbers at East Ruston Old Vicarage

Before we return to a string of wonderful guests from the horticultural world, we must take a moment to savour the treasures currently on show at East Ruston Old Vicarage, a thirty-two acre wonderland on the Norfolk coast.From the big, bold and brilliant Brumansias to the tumble of climbers filling up the walls on the house and a look at some of the stars in the Desert Wash, owner Alan Gray is joined by Thordis for a meander through some of the best bits in the garden this summer.
