Normanby walled garden - 1st June

Normandby Park is a beautiful place. I used to live not to far from it at Winteringham. Sue Hoyle the head gardener has done a wonderful job,
Do they still have the deer park?

Thanks Janey , that helped to brighten up a dull old day , I will get their one day ... :o))

lovely pics janey.... just what we need on a day like today...

Lovely photos, Janey, and such a lot of colour. The 4th photo is gorgeous. Very cheering on a drizzly, cold, dreary day :)

Just the colours to see on this dreary June 1st - jumpers on again !

Looks a wonderful place to visit no matter what the weather is doing, just love the different colour and flower groupings, amazing how white seems to bring everything together;0)

Lovely pics Janey,I hope this last downpour hasn't flattened them !!

That looks a lovely place Janey. Never been ....so thanks for sharing!

wonderfull pics janey and what a lovely place to, thanx for sharing with us, beautifull colours ;o)))

It looks lovely Janey. Not like a rainy day at all :o)) And I always enjoy your photos from Normanby .

Thanks for all the great comments....you know on a day we had today the scent of those white Stocks was incredible...really heavy hanging in the air, the colour too seemed to shine.
Marjories....you lived in the next village to us, we're in Winterton...I know Winteringham very well...I have a friend there on Low Burgage...:o) Yep Sue is still the head of operations....and the Deer Park, just the same!
I'm sure you'll come up one day Amy, it is the ancestral home of our new PMs missus...:o)

these are so pretty were is it again

Its called Normanby Hall Country Park, Cristina, just north of Scunthorpe.........

I love this garden and it is a regular day out for us. I think you may find the white flower is Sweet Rocket [Hesperis matronalis] It is a beautiful plant and i have it in the garden.

Thanks for that Sbg.....very similar flower and scent of the Stock family...it really is a wonder to see.......

What a delightful place to visit, smashing pics as usual......

lovely photos, thanks for sharing

they are in the same botanic group Janey. I have a lilac one in flower at the moment too. They are a lovely plant.

We spend many an afternoon in the park with granchildren. I am trying to interest them in the beauty but they just want to play in the park. Maybe one day............Well done on your pictures!

I've seen the lilac ones Sbg....really beautiful...I'm going to give them a try next year.....I used to have Phlox years ago...very simliar to those too......
Thanks Dd and Mageth...:o)
Ha..ha Grannysue...we used to take our Granddaughters regularly...don't really want to come now, especially if Nan is taking her camera...Lol!

Pretty photos Janey. Lovely blog :o)

Thank you for the blog Janey, it's lovely to get a glimpse of gardens that I cannot visit myself easily, looks like you had a good day, despite the rain! :)

Glad you enjoyed it Tt and Cazkiss....:o)
Tt..I thought of you when watching Britain's got talent...Tina with her beautiful rescue dog Chandy...they danced together........

Hi Janey, lovely blog and one of ypur pics has decided me to buy a geum. I#ve never grown any and not sure why, but I think the one in your pic may be borsii and looks lovely. Wasn't Chandi amazing! :-)

Hi Bornagain.......I had a lovely yellow Geum till this last winter.....I think they're really worth growing....pretty little poppy type heads floating above other plants...I used to grow the red one which showed off the gold centre brilliantly. Yes Chandi was fantastic..and such a beauty too....didn.t she just love her mum...:o))

She brought tears to my eyes:-)
