Herbaceous borders at Parham, Sussex

Visited Parham Gardens near Storrington, Sussex and took a few pictures of their series of well-stocked herbaceous borders which filled the enormous walled garden. There are even more borders than those shown in my pictures. Interesting greenhouses too. If herbaceous borders are your thing then this is a good place to visit. Plant centre has a good range of plants for sale. There is a Tudor mansion too but I just did the gardens.

Is that Ywel's Sea Holly, nipped over from Wales ?

Yes it was a nice place Laura and very very hot. UK's hottest day of the year.
Diane, his sea holly ? It looked more like a Welsh weapon of war !!

Those borders are wonderful ... so colourful. They look magnificent. I love to visit places like that.
Wasn't that thing a cardoon ? It looked as if it could be used as a weapon though lol
