Above and below: details of the Memorial Garden just below St. Mary's Church,  which has been replanted by Halesworth in Bloom.

It contains a number of  Hooker plants brought by the father and son botanists of that name, who lived in Halesworth and later founded and in turn directed the Royal Botanical Gardens at Kew in the 19th Century.

Halesworth is a small town in North-East Suffolk,
about 10 miles from the coast.

The town has been preparing for the Anglia in Bloom competition only
since 2013, and made a fine debut in its first competitive year, 2014. 
We expect to do even better in future years, as we gain experience
and enrol further active members.

Do visit us: you will not be disappointed.
