RHS Harlow Carr...

Enjoyed a lovely walk around the gardens...Certainly worth a visit




Bit of Veg....


Loved this idea ....

 

Looks like you had lovely weather for your day out -

Is the vegetable garden the 10ft x 10ft plot ?

a-a

 

Looks great Loli, love the teapot

 

It was glorious....
@alex-adam ....yes that bit was...there were lot's of little plots ....that was just a taster to show just what you can grow in a small plot

@Zigs ....I think the 'tea pot' is a brilliant idea if anyone is stuck to find a place for collecting leaves it didn't look out of place in the border...personally i don't normally go for 'novelty things' in gardens but with my leaf fettish i can feel a chicken wire tea pot coming on

I only found two negative points....the 'eatery'... although all looked very appertizing was very expensive and extremely busy....anything up to an hours waiting time...and £4.25 for an egg and cress sandwich between two slices of bread....i'd have expected a chicken thrown in for that too....so worth eating before you visit

The other point is...i could have done with a few GC buddies with me as many of the plant labels were missing and there wasn't anyone nearby to tell me what they were.....

I'll definately go again as i like to see how the gardens change over the seasons.....there was alot more to see but i was being selfish and just wanted to put the camera down and soak it all up.........

 

Don't let Al n see it, he'll be making a Giraffe shaped one

 

I never got an invite

 

Right...next time your on

 

Looks as if there was some interesting walks there Loli.

 

'T'would be a pleasure
