ngs garden in Peterborough

Yesterday, nutcutlet and I went to see a small but exquisite garden on  a modern estate.

When you first enter you are in a small vestibule formed by a Portugese Laurel (Nut will correct all my mistakes on plant names I hope) There are some wonderful Hostas in this area

 and glowing bamboo

 more hostas

 Then the larger area;

 with a small pond,

 Then even more unusual hostas

 This one has a twisted form to the leaves

 Miniature Hostas! I didn't know there was such a thing.

Rob the gardener here then very kindly gave us cool drinks and showed us the estate allotments (every estate should have this!)

 delicious black beans possibly Italian

 I think this is a homemade polytunnel; brilliant

 artichoke now useful for a flower arrangement

 Canes fastened with plastic bottles
