The Savill Garden

what a wonderful Blog and photo's cinders, looks like a magical place to visit, and the weather was kind to you,so glad you put this blog on,

Thanks Yorks, I really enjoyed it,

What a wonderful place to visit, a lovely setting and the flower displays are beautiful and I was so pleased to see a picture of Astrantia Venice as I have just bought this one to start a little collection, got my eye on that Sempervivium too. Great pictures Cinders and thanks for the visit ;0)

Glad you enjoyed it PP. I liked that Astrantia too, so I shall be on the lookout for that, and I like the blue Sisrynchium too, I feel that my rockery could do with some blue on it. They had a small nursery there but couldnt find it there so bought a prostrate blue Veronica.

Looks like a fab place to visit, lovely pictures

You have just jogged my memory think I bought a blue and a Yellow Sisrynchium for my new rockery will have to check;0)

Love the photos cinders, especially the Astrantia Venice which has gone on my wish list I have three Astrantia and just love them.
So glad you had some good weather to enjoy the day.

What a super day you had. Lovely gardens and some lovely plants the Cinders. The plant with no name looks great :)
Thank you for showing us around!

Thanks all. The plant with no name - I couldnt find the label for it, think it must have been covered up. Some kind of succulent.

oh what a lovely place, thank you cinderella, i wish i lived nearer. that water is just amazing, i loved it. the lake is beautiful and i really like the cornus

That was a lovely place to visit. Very interesting to see and hear of it :o)

Thanks Sticki and Hywel, sorry no cactus !

It must be more than 40 years now since I visited the Savill Garden, and I can't really remember much of the details (so many gardens visited in between ) EXCEPT for the great swathes of the most enormous, perfect Gunnera plants. And there they are! Happy memories! Thank you, Cinders.

You're welcome Gattina,

that brings back some memories Cinders, lovely pics i can still remember how it smelt in there.... pic one with the sun statue is by Obelisk pond were i take my girls most weekends in the summer,,,,

Glad you enjoyed it S/L. I took the Notice to prove to you that I had been there. There was a lemon tree just inside the door in flower and the scent was heavenly.

All the blogs are fantastic and wonderful, very beautiful places:-)))

Thank you Junna, its very nice of you to say that, thanks

Can anyone jog my ageing memory with the name of the pretty magenta succulent in the last photograph, please? I've got it in my garden, and I KNOW it isn't really a Mesembryanthemum. It's a Perennial, right?

Yes it is a perennial, but unfortunately I cannot help with the name as I couldnt find a label for it. Sorry Gattina
