Visit to Godinton

Hello again!

Windows 8 seems to be less tricky than expected, in fact I find it very logical- so far-*crossfingers*. However, autodidacts amateurs like me need a lot of time to find out how things work. Eventually, here are some pictures from Godinton, Kent. We went beginning of April on our way to Anglesey. Leaving home in warm sunshine but once crossed the channel, the sun became more and more rare. This was ok as the chocolate dog has to stay in the car when we are visiting and so he had ideal conditions.

My pictures seem to be all quite ok and it stayed dry during the visit. Therefore, I shall just upload a selection of them as we strolled around the garden and let them speak for themselves.

















This part of the garden was at its best right then












entering the walled garden











Nicely labeled fruit trees just started flowering





a lot of lovely auriculus and other delicate flowers were under glass





there were quite a lot of gardeners around - mostly volunteers

Had to take some glasshouse construction details for EG ;-)













Is this birch trunk also spring cleaned by hand as some gardeners do?

loved the nest box


Leucojum, very brave!




It was a great start for our wee holiday and a good timing as it allowed us to have a break during the journey.
