    Is this your garden, Fire?  It looks really interesting.  Wish I lived close enough to visit...
    Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.

    Hi, no, sorry - the caption wasn't very clear - it was an open garden I visited on Sunday.

    Great pics. I've got the London Yellow Book and MUST make an effort to get to some. I seem to have missed all the ones closest to me already :disappointed:

    Visited Wisley last week, on a college trip so my pictures are a bit random - certainly not an overview of the place but there were several bits I didn't even know were there!

    Alpine house:


    Rather a nifty use for a 70s brick, I thought!

    And finally - I didn't know there was a bonsai walk! Turned a corner and there it was.



    I had to include this. Over now, but this is all tall camassias! Can you imagine what it must have looked like?!? There was another area the same - it must have been an extraordinary sight just a short while ago.

    LG - thanks for those wonderful Wisley photos!  I've not been for... 42 years, I think... 

    Extraordinary things you've photographed in that glasshouse.  I love the plant with single quote marks up its stem.   :)
