Come with us around some new gardens we discovered this afternoon thanks to our lovely friends who told us about it at singing this morning. Click on any image for a bigger view.
Can anyone identify this lovely plant?
An original 18th century stone seat
Tea and coffee house with delicious home made cakes and an honesty box
He really wanted some of our cake but we thought it probably wouldn’t be good for him!
Magical walkway……
Grasses
Can anyone identify this rather peculiar plant?
Tree ferns
Look very, very carefully for the blue streaks and you’ll see a pair of dragonflies
Treeferns
Daisies in the lawn
Water lilies

Beautiful white planting

The look on that dog’s face = precious!

That’s exactly what his expression said! I did give him the crumbs from the plate and he spent the next 5 minutes happily hoovering up! 🙂

I wish we could oblige! It would be so lovely to sit down together and enjoy a good natter over a cup of tea. 🙂

#1 plant is Astrantia major, #2 is Phlomis Russeliana. Is this Bonython then? I visited a few years ago in June and it is a gorgeous garden. Time for another visit I think. Did you have to book?

No need to book and hardly anyone there. It is certainly a treasure to be discovered, if rather pricey. Delicious cake! 🙂

Thank you for theses ids, now to try to find Astrantia Major and discover if it would be happy in our garden. 🙂

Likes shade. I have bought two small plants, one white, one red and they seem happy. The red one is in flower!
