RHS Garden Harlow Carr in Harrogate is hosting a three-day autumn celebration this weekend featuring seasonal displays and competitions.
RHS Garden Harlow Carr in Harrogate is hosting an Autumn Weekend from Friday to Sunday, offering visitors the chance to experience its seasonal displays at their peak. The garden is known for its vibrant Japanese acers, copper-toned conifers and golden woodland walks during the autumn months, with displays of late-flowering perennials, ornamental grasses, berries and seedheads throughout the grounds.
A key highlight is the RHS Late Fruit and Vegetable Competition, which features more than 60 classes of prize-winning produce. The Northern Fruit Group Apple Display will return, allowing visitors to have their own homegrown fruit identified by experts. Those interested in fungi can join guided forays led by the Mid Yorkshire Fungus Group, running daily at 11.30am and 1.30pm for £3 per person, with talks on fungi given by Jenny Sergeant on Friday and Saturday at 11am.
Fiona Slight, curator at RHS Garden Harlow Carr, said the changing colours bring an entirely new character to the garden, from the vivid reds of the acers around the Sandstone Rock Garden to the golden canopies in the Woodland landscape. All Autumn Weekend events are included with standard garden admission and are free for RHS members.
