    The other one was in the Waterlily House - in which I survived long enough to take this pic

    Will go there soon but I wish I'd been able to join the gang.

    In London. Keen but lazy.

    Look forward to meeting you next year B3image

    Great pics Liri - the giant mohican alliums were one of my horticultural highlights of the day - must remember to try and get hold of some this autumn

    So glad you all made it home safely - not surprised you were tired.  The cafe stop sounds perfect Yvie - must remember that for next time.  

    Still smiling every time I think about our day image

    Some Broad Walk horizontals.
    Sorry the focus is a bit poor in some - I didn't put my glasses on and the sun was too bright to see the camera screen!
