SRGC Members' Gardens: from 2008 Celebrations

[Stan da Prato]

Better late than never?? I am at last getting round to organising photos from the members' open garden events two years ago - the first ten are from the Pawleys' attractively informal garden which was the fist of several I visited on 24 May.

Ten pictures from my second port of call on 24 May - the Young's hillside garden in Perth. I am afraid I have long lost my notes on the plant names but most are fairly easy to recognise.

My third garden  visit  on 24 May was to the Patersons, the first of three excellent gardens in Invergowrie,  and with lots  of good plants in a small suburban  garden.

Nice to see some Scottish gardens Stan, thanks for posting.

Can you tell me what is the Primula in pic 020 please? I no longer have and can't get here, P. 'Inverewe' so this could be a substitute if it is growable from seed.

Thanks.

I don't think I've ever seen better Celmisias in cultivation or in the wild, come to that. They are superb, especially C. hectori (though my single rosette is holding its own ) and so many buds. Not a bad wee Raoulia either!

Fourth garden of the day and second in Invergowrie  was Fred and Alice Hunt's immaculate garden. Again apologies for losing my list of plant names.

Next door to the Hunt's garden is that of Margaret and Henry Taylor. The combination of two such good gardens with so many interesting plants must be unique and was certainly appreciated by their many visitors.

Great to see so many fine plants beautifully grown and combined.  Thank you very much Stan

Wonderful gardens and wonderful pictures. Sad to say never been to any of them.
Thanks for taking the time to show me what I have missed.

Last  but by no means least of all the gardens I visited  on 24 May 2008 was the Drummond's - very sunny with lots of flowers.

Many thanks Stan for all these super pictures of gardens whose owners we know by name but of course haven't seen in the flesh, as it were. Some lucky southerners will no doubt see them next year but not I, alas.  A wonderful picture of Carduncellus pinnatus in the last batch.
