sigh. aren't allium just the best? and orchids, and waterlilies...
Until you see an RHS floral marquee you don't know what the phrase "a riot of colour" really means. You walk into the tent, your mouth falls open & you shuffle along, stopping to stare every couple of feet & exclaiming; "Oh, that's gorgeous." at even shorter intervals. :)
SR - Next time you come to Blighty, make sure it's flower show season. Kew is good, Kew is wonderful, but an RHS show is a thing of special glory.
Ooh, a HL for the nymphaea? Cheers, Whomever; these slow-traffic days really are working to my advantge. ;)
swamprose says:
nymphea are always a HL. when I was kayaking, with a botanist yet, I did something I never did (do not pick the flowers) and festooned my kayak with fragrant water lilies. and no guilt. :)
Kayaking with a botanist, eh? Good thing there were water lillies or that might have seemed somewhat of a wasted opportunity. ;)
swamprose says:
ok, h, we spent time on dry land...and it saves lugging all the books with you--I highly recommend a personal botanist. and a personal art historian. I am spoiled rotten.
