🕯️ This All Souls Day, we invite you to pause for a moment of quiet reflection at our Tree of Remembrance in the Vandeleur Walled Garden Arboretum. 🌿

A native Irish Spindle tree has been dedicated as a place to honour and remember those who are no longer with us but remain forever in our hearts.

When visiting the Walled Garden, we invite you to take a ribbon from the Glasshouse, write a name or a special message, and tie it to the tree as a personal tribute. 🤍

May the Spindle Tree stand as a lasting symbol of remembrance, love, and connection for all who visit.
