Free annuals from Seymour Square
Twice each year, our gardeners plant thousands of annuals in Seymour Square. With spring here, it’s time for them to be removed and the garden beds prepared for summer planting.
Next week, the beds will be dug over and the poppies, polyanthus, snapdragons, violas and pansies removed. A few tulip bulbs will also be lifted to give away.
Come along on Monday 2 December from 8.00 am to 10.00 am. In the event of rain, the event will be postponed to Tuesday 3 December. Our gardeners will be on site to help. Please bring your own fork and containers.
Poll: Would you use a Picton-Blenheim Saturday bus?

This can be true even if the life changes are a good thing, such as a move to somewhere you will love to live.
Once you understand why you have this feeling, you can reframe it as creating a new environment that will support your present life while reminding you of your best experiences.
