Marginal Planting – Purple Loosestrife

Marginal Planting – Marsh Marigold

As part of the amazing lake transformation, a programme of marginal planting in and around the lake edges will shortly be underway to bring about an improved habitat, better bio-diversity, and a splash of colour and interest, whilst helping improve water quality. The first one of the seven plants featured is the lovely Marsh Marigold and we will reveal the others here over the coming weeks.

Artwork on the Lake

 

The five artwork pieces have now landed by the edge of the lake – each piece has an information panel on a lectern next to it, providing interesting background on many facets of the park and lake through the years. Once the new footpaths open you will be able to see them close up on your walk around the lake. (Click on each panel to open a bigger image to read them)
