A couple from Tynlon in Anglesey have been recognised by the National Garden Scheme for opening their garden to raise money for charity.
Keith and Rosa Andrew of Gwyndy Back, Tynlon, received a sundial as thanks for their commitment to sharing their garden with the public, with another open day set for this Sunday (June 26).
Keith and Rosa love their garden and what started out as a light-hearted offer to open themselves, quickly turned into a firm signing for the National Garden Scheme.
“We have enjoyed sharing our garden with fellow garden enthusiasts these last 30 years,” the couple said.
Their Gwyndy Bach garden spans three quarters of an acre, set amidst the rugged Anglesey landscape.
Romantically planted in informal intimate rooms with interesting, rare plants and shrubs, box and yew topiary, old roses and a Japanese garden with large Koi pond make up the horticultural haven.
Roas is involved with the Welsh Historical Garden Trust, while Keith is a member of the Royal Cambrian Academy and a well-known artist in the region.
The couple’s garden will be open from 11am-4.30pm on June 26, with refreshments available and adult tickets costing £4, while child entry is free.
