Garden Centres etc.

I know Garden Centres are now able to open in England (from Weds), but what about Private Gardens, like National Trust. Are these to stay shut for now?

Probably. I think the only reason that garden centres are to open is due to the pressure that the industry has put on the government. They will lose so much stock if they aren't able to shift it (as it's alive), that it will be economically devastating and many will close. I don't think garden centres are opening because they provide some really essential service. It's more just that most are open air, not a high risk space people linger, and opening them will mean those businesses can stay afloat.
