After only four years the garden of Gerald Majumdar has won national recognition.

It is in the National Garden Scheme’s  yellow book, already winning plaudits from the gardening world and he said he was immensely proud of his “very new” garden after starting  work on the makeover in spring of 2003. 

The Kidderminster garden, at Honeybrook House Cottage is open to the public on Sunday to raise money for charity.

It has made such an  impression that it is being featured on the BBC Open Gardens programme. Cameras have filmed the two-acre creation through the early months of the year and they return on Sunday to record views of people seeing it for the first time. 

The garden is a mile-and-a-half out of Kidderminster on the A442 to  Bridgnorth. People unable to go on Sunday can visit by  appointment. It is open under the National Gardens Scheme.

 Also open this weekend are two gardens in the Penkridge area. People who did not get to David and Anne Smith’s garden for the NGS opening last weekend because of the foul weather get the chance to see it on Sunday.

They open alongside John and Olive Ingram, at The Greenlands. Funds raised go to the Save the Children Fund.
