We managed to squeeze in another visit to this garden on the last day of August:<\/p>\n

As you can see it was a fine day, but it was quite blustery which made getting some of the photographs quite tricky – some of the plants were blowing about quite a bit. In the view above, of the vicarage from the King’s Walk, the wind made little difference.<\/p>\n

I do like the blue sky and fluffy clouds in this photo. The grass looks quite good too with the classic striped look. I did take a similar photo a few minutes earlier when the sun was behind a cloud but it was inferior to this version.<\/p>\n

In a sheltered spot, and taking time for a lull in the wind, I managed to get this image of a bloom on a magnolia tree:<\/p>\n

Not being an expert, I must admit I was surprised – I thought the trees blossomed earlier in the year. This bloom looks almost perfect. Not being my tree I couldn’t cut away the leaf at the top… My wife helped out though by holding back a few leaves that would have got in the way of the photograph.<\/p>\n

In the new Diamond Jubilee Walled Garden there is a feature consisting of a small room to one side of the wall. Amongst the attractions of this room is a table constructed from driftwood; it hold this fine specimen of a Begonia:<\/p>\n

An amazing amount of work must have gone into making this table. I love also the delicate tones of the leaves and flowers. The moss encrusted pot just complements the whole scene – superb!<\/p>\n
