Did you open your garden to the public? Lovely planting. :-)

I wish it was my garden, its Suntrap Garden at Gogar Bank just outside Edinburgh. Scotsgran put a plug on this site for the open day a couple of weeks ago, The garden is open to the public everyday and there are plant sales. Today was a charity days, money raised going to projects in the garden and the Gardeners benevolent fund.

Oh, the virtual world gets ever smaller, Csarina! I well remember her "plug". Couldn't get to the "Treasure Hunt" etc today, alas, due to football and swimming lessons with my kids. They would have enjoyed it, but there was important grading taking place. :-((

But it is on my list of places to visit, and have a note of the plant sale on 4th July in my diary! It is a beautiful place, from what I have seen via your pics and the website. Thank You! :-))

I could not get there either David due to a previous engagement but Csarina has done a first class job of whetting the appetite of members. We need to look after our treasures and make sure people know they are there. That is a particularly lovely rhododendron but so are all the others that you see as you walk around the site.
