    I know Bodnant Gardens has featured here before but as It was my first time there I thought I would put a few pics up as it was so colourful.
    Unfortunately we were a month too early for the Laburnum arch.

    And Highgrove - does HRH ever open that to the public I wonder? Presumably a security nightmare if he does ...

    Bit of a slog from here too Kristen, 7 hours to Birkenhead in heavy traffic. We were staying in the Wirral so it was only an hour from there.
    have been to Stourhead, Wisley and Westonburt in the last two years, not been to Sissinghurst yet.

    Great pictures Stronglylodon, if you visit again there's a cracking Alpine nursery nearby :)
