A Visit to Newby Hall

Im sure i have the gist, its just beautiful, hardly know where to start, those poppies, that peony, the tulips, the meadow ~ all so very lovely.

thanks lulu!! i couldnt believe the weather either ~ sadly it seems to have changed!!!

Great pics and gorgeous place, Lulu. I love all these old stone urns and that rhodie with the fragrance...it's called Luteum...I can remember what it smells like and it's fabulous!!

Were you at the races, by any chance? :)

We were Karen, a lovely, hot day at York!
Yep Sticki, spent 4 hours watering the garden yesterday and the weather might do it for me tomorrow!

We used to go every year when we did the British Craft Trade Fair in Harrogate. Loved it! Always managed to come home with more money than we went with too! :))

Beautiful pictures! If you were here now, you might find you need that jumper, things have definitely cooled down.

So I hear Waddy! I have a hoody on today!
We went home with less Karen!!

Think you've gotten more than just one 'artistic shot' there Lu, beautiful!

Thanks ladies.....wow, it was hot!

its not hot now Lou, in fact the central heating came on last night here,

Lovely pics Lulu - love poppies and I just recently bought 2 tamarix trees - like that big pot thing after the tamarix pics and just seeing the tops of the pampas !! -
I love ferns :)))))) great shot of the swan the water looks so stunning , agree with the bog garden , times I wish my garden was bigger for a huge gunnera :)))))))

The Viburnum Macrophalum is very special !!!
