That's what greeted us when we visited Hever Castle Gardens.
The lady i'm helping at the moment, likes to go out and about, and especially likes gardens, and Hever has lovely gardens, that have mature beds and some that change with the seasons. When I was there last month there were hundreds of daffodils and hyacinths and many other flowers and shrubs that I can't begin to name...
This month..., there is a glorious display of tulips, the web site says they planted 7000 bulbs, in different displays, throughout the garden, with over 60 different varieties, plus ...., other flowers to a company them.
The tulip is one of my favourites, my colleague and I took it in turns between pushing the wheelchair, and taking photos. I took 220 photos, and as usual, I have put them into a slideshow so you can enjoy seeing what I saw too. I hope the link below works , I know some of you had problems viewing the last slide show I put up. I'm sorry, but ... I still do not know why that was, so I hope this works, in the mean time, i'm looking for an alternative to always using you tube.
All photos are my own
