New images
These images were captured on the Saturday of the late May Bank Holiday weekend in 2018. I visited at lunchtime when most people were enjoying a repast at one of the restaurants. This meant that there were less people around, which made it easier to capture photographs.The images are in the sequence of the walk around the gardens
| Image number | Notes |
| 1000 | Walking up the hill from the entrance there are lovely beds of different purple flowers. Here we focus on the flowers and the lake is in the distance |
| 1004 | A close up of a large purple Allium, probably Allium cristophii, star of Persia. The six sided star heads mottled in the sunlight |
| 1045 | By the house, the purple Iris is set off by the yellow Choisya behind it. Further behind is the water and its reflections |
| 1083 | A meadow of colour. Take this path and you feel you are in a flower meadow. So many different plants wave in the breeze |
| 1121 | Many people have copied the roses tied to the ropes. Here we have a creamy orange coloured rose in focus and surrounded by distant greenery |
| 1128 | The stem of Heuchera Palace Purple is the focal point here and it’s leaves at ground level form a carpet in the background |
| 1151 | The plants on the lakeside provide a colourful canvas which is reflected in the rippling water. Makes you want to sit in the seat and watch the world go by! |
| 1158 | The same location a few minutes later and the water is calm enough to provide precise reflections of the house and the greenery |
| 1192 | We are on the way down the hill in the dry garden. The tangerine colours are so vibrant it’s hard to do them justice |
| 1224 | In this image the purple alliums for a curved line leading to the gazebo where visitors are enjoying the view from this shaded vantage point |
| 1237 | A clump of trees forms the location here for more purple alliums. Again the yellow and purple go nicely together |
