Found at Chris Beardshaw’s Urban Oasis which was soon to become a place of refuge whilst we were surrounded by him, the Countess of Wessex and loads of photographers; swiftly followed by Monty Don and BBC film crew in tow!

An Admirable Admiral
My first red admiral butterfly of the year – seen at Hampton Court Palace Show last week. I’ve yet to find out why this blue shirt was so attractive.
Friday Bench: The Deptford Project
A show garden all about community-based projects in the London Boroughs. As well as plenty of the edible stuff, there’s plenty of recycling too 🙂
Reflective Panda
I didn’t realise the familiar WWF Panda logo was reflective until I got home and looked through my pictures. This is from the WWF 50th Anniversary Garden – Why We Care About Chalk Streams. More to come on this over at Veg Plotting…
Friday Bench: Hampton Court II
Friday Bench: Hampton Court
Friday Bench: Hampton Court
This the Hampton Court in Herefordshire!
Just outside the more formal gardens is a wide open space with picnic benches. Nearby is this more inviting bench simply fashioned from felled timber from the estate. Judging by the scuffed area around it, it’s well used.
String Theory
I believe the presentation and number of colours available of twine at a garden’s shop denote its quality 😉
This means Hampton Court Garden in Herefordshire is top notch.
