There is a wide variety of gardens open, from 17th-century historic-terraced gardens with stunning views (Balcaskie), to a thriving community garden complete with woodland, orchard, allotment plots and a Primary School garden (Strathkinness). From rhododendrons to spring bulbs, trilliums to orchards, these gardens show case an inspirational mix of the best that spring has to offer. FIFE SUMMER TRAIL The gardens open in the Fife Summer Trail, over weekdays from 3rd June – 13th June, highlight the wonderful creativity and dedication of gardeners. From the formality of a symmetrical layout and fantastic use of colour at Greenhead Farmhouse, to imaginatively clipped yew hedges that form garden ‘rooms’ in the walled garden at Wormistoune. The garden at Glenbeg has been designed for wheelchair access, to allow owner Lilias to tend to her raised beds, pond and cut flowers.
