Our Garden Heritage Under Threat From Drought Conditions

Official supplier of quality heritage paints to the National Trust

The National Trust has developed a document ‘Preserving Our Garden Heritage in Drought Conditions” which may be found by clicking here. It is designed to assist anyone involved in maintaining a heritage garden during drought conditions. The Trust is very concerned that some gardens are threatened with the possibility of destruction due to lack of irrigation and inappropriate plant replacement. The watering of healthy mature trees should also be a priority as these are critical to the structure of traditional gardens and may take a long time to mature.
