Gardens to delight

Gardens to delight
My sister rang and said she'd the offer of some tickets to the Gardeners' World exhibition at the NEC from a friend who was unable to go, and did I fancy it. Did I? ...you bet! So that's where we've been today - and this is one of the show gardens - very pretty.

We're both mad about plants so spent most of our time in the RHS floral pavillion. The stands are breathtaking...the most gorgeously scented sweet peas and roses, spires of delphiniums in all shades of blue, and unusual varieties of all the cottage garden flowers that are my favourites. Of course, we had to buy just a few - the temptation was so great. Just the challenge now of where to plant them...and how to improve the state of my tired feet.
