    I've just looked up the details of the gardens I couldn't name above. They, in this order: 'Brilliance in Bloom', 'Best of Both Worlds' and (the one with the kennel, which makes sense now) 'The RNIB Community Garden'. I've also spotted which ones I missed, and am a bit gutted about not seeing the Apeiron and Breckland gardens, I think I would have enjoyed them. Oh well. I saw, or chose not to see, pretty much everything else.

    Just back from our day there today - had a great day, although it was stiflingly hot at times.  Only took one photo, and that was in the garden inside a rusty steel box with mirrors.  Sounds naff, but it was amazing 😀......pic doesn’t really do it justice

    I thought there were some really great gardens there this year - My favourite (apart from the mirrored box) was the one that was divided into two spaces to cater for two different gardening styles - rather predictably I liked the rosy cottagey side.

    We were there from 10.30 to 5.30, with quite a few sitting under tree interludes (essential today).  Am now completely shattered, but a happy chicky 🐥

    I think that's the Apeiron one that I somehow missed. As soon as I saw it on the website today I thought it looked like I'd love it :-(.

    It's a good show isn't it?
