Whatever the weather over the half-term holidays you'll be able to find wildflowers in Northumberland Park on our Self-Led Wildflower Trail. Pick up a map/quiz sheet from the Visitor Centre Lobby, Cafe or leaflet holders at Tynemouth Road and King Edward Road main entrances and see if you can find all ten wildflowers.
You may see some of them flowering in the park on your way.
Good luck.
