Ah, a traditional formal garden. I'd love to have a bevy of gardeners caring for my flowerbeds. Perhaps in my next life. (sigh)

It does look very nice, but I'm sure glad I don't have to maintain it or pay to have it maintained!

'tis a very lovely garden! Everything by us is covered in a think white blanket of snow!

Interesting story of the estate.

I like the sundial. One doesn't see many of them around anymore.

Kitty a dit…

I quite like the giant sundial. How neat?

Pietro a dit…

Splendid garden, very interesting the sundial surrounded by the flowers: I think we have not this kind of sundials here (I mean: a sundial which is not on the wall of a house or of a church).

"Time began in a garden!"A beginning for a poem, which is inspired by this splendid garden.
