Spring Has Sprung!

The Prunus are on the move! Prunus is the genus name for all the stone fruits i.e. plums, cherries, peaches and nectarines. Blossom is appearing very quickly with the hedgerows of sloe along the road from Spetchley Park to County Hall predicted to be in full bloom in the coming days. Ornamental cherries, almonds, peaches and nectarines are also starting to blossom in gardens around the vale. Cherry plum blossom is starting to appear in hedgerows and old orchards, and with the current mild weather it is predicted to be in full bloom in the next week or so.

To take full advantage of the Vale at its best – why not book a seat on the Springtime in the Vale Coach Tours – an exceptional day out complete with a blossom guide to highlight the best viewpoints and provide an historical and entertaining trip.
