Ruby the rabbit eating a radish, illustrated by Axel Scheffler.

About

Head out on a garden adventure at Blickling Estate inspired by the book 'Ruby Plants a Radish', written by Kate Petty and illustrated by Axel Scheffler.

Explore the various activities in the walled garden and find out how radishes grow. Spin the tiles to play the weeding game, go on a hunt for hiding ladybirds, and have fun in the muddy play patch.

Head into the house to search for the crocheted radishes as you explore each room, and visit the kitchen to play with the weather station - can you show what the weather is like outside?

Available daily 10am - 5pm (last entry 4.30pm) between 25 May - 30 June in the walled garden at Blickling Estate.

Standard admission prices apply, no booking required. Free entry for National Trust members.
