Day Out

 

After a dirty pig breakfast at Coffi Co on the Esplanade with Toby,  we made track to St Fagans National Museum of History

to visit the 100 year old magnolia tree.

Also colourful flower beds.

Next, a drive down to the coast at Sully for a lovely lunch at the Seashore Grill. Great to have a friend to stay with his car. Thank you Toby.

The Court Gardens - Spring '26

Starting at the West End with Clive's collection,

before heading East to Barbara's new planting, 

and her year old one,

followed by my efforts

before reaching the seating area 

with pots overflowing with colours

next to Martin's newly created 'Victorian' garden.

Moving on, cleared but no cunning plan yet for a design for Janet and Spud's make over. 

But it is on the way.

Ok, layed out a few days later

At the East End, Gek's efforts paying off year by year

and Katherine's entrance coming to life.

On the south side, Sue's slope waking up.
