The Friends had hoped to add live musical entertainment from the Helensburgh Oratorio Choir to the day’s programme, but unforeseen circumstances meant the choir was unable to perform - though that didn’t stop those who went along to the garden on Sunday enjoying the day.

on for the Friends of Geilston added: “As ever the garden was the star of the show. The kitchen garden is burgeoning with growth and the walled garden an absolute delight.”
