Beth Chatto's Garden-May 13 2013
« on: May 23, 2013, 04:12:50 PM »
A series of pictures from one of my favourite gardens. Whatever time of the year always colourful and loads to see and a good plant shop too. Oh, and a very good tea shop!

The first set are general views around the garden:-

Paeonia were out; a good stand of Uvularia; a very colourful Ulex euopaeus Flora Pleno and a lovely Fothergilla
