Boyfriend and I had a perfect Thursday, exploring the delights of the Chelsea Flower Show, so I'm not sure how my weekend can top that. Thank you Living Streets for the free tickets!
We spent 10 hours (it's that big) wandering around garden after garden, and looking at display after display, and I have to say I fell in love with almost every garden I saw.
I got lots of ideas for my future garden:
Cottage Garden Style:
Splashes of Colour:
Raised Beds:
Log Walls {a haven for wildlife as well as books!}:
Wildlife Habitats:
I think I'm going to need quite a big garden to incorporate all my ideas {these are only a fraction them...}!
Aside from the beautiful plants and floral displays, I saw and heard some might cute and funny things:
An couple in their mid-eighties, wearing matching green cardigans, sitting on a sunny hill, holding hands, looking very much in love.
An elderly lady, while looking at some tall thin plants, exclaiming to her friend that "goodness, they look phallic"!
Overhearing part of a great conversation between two ladies that went "...if we're still thinking about dragonflies when we get home...".
I was still thinking about dragonflies when I got home, but I'll be damned if I can work out the significance of it!
