Chelsea 2010
My favourite garden at Chelsea this year. Kebony ASA designed by Darren Saines. All the planting is suitable for Norway, so would do ok in the North West of England.
One House Nursery
Amazing Anemone nemorosa 'Virescens' spotted at the open day at One House Nursery Rainow. Also Peter Rabbit by Claire de Ruiter sits happily in the rhubarb in the walled garden.
Henbury Hall Gardens
A Cheshire Gardens Trust visit to Henbury Hall Gardens on 14th May. The view of the house from the sunken garden, the view of the lake framed by gorgeous azaleas and the oval window embrasure in the old walled garden.
courtyard garden
Finished in the autumn of 2008, this garden is beginning to mature. The box hedge is now well established, ready for clipping this summer. The new paving of Kerridge stone is looking great, contrasting well with the recycled slabs and drystone walls. The photos were taken in early May, hence the tulips.
Barcelona Pavillion
The quality of the stone, the grace, the proportion, it is the Barcelona Pavilion designed by Mies Van der Rohe in 1929. That's 1929.
