London Private Garden - South London

 This is Flo and we are in the basement of her home looking out onto the garden behind her London Townhouse?  I don't know what to call the neighborhood, I will show a photo for the street below.


Yes I am gardening or doing gardening tasks in London.  I just deadheaded these Iceburg Roses.  I am in my garden tourist attire.

Flower Marquee at Chelsea Flower Show

 So here’s the deal.  I am restarting my blog as a true log of my adventures and today I in London, England for the 2022 Chelsea Flower Show.  Yesterday’s post was from the same location but was of the show gardens and vendors outside.  

Today we’re going inside the big tent.  At one of the first displays of agapanthus and nerines, there was Mary Berry giving an interview.  I love her on the British Bake Off show and here she was talking about nerines. WOW!

Chelsea Flower Show - Designer Showcase

Five hours walking around Chelsea looking at show gardens, tools, products and lots of design ideas.   What struck me, those small planting areas with pollinator friendly annuals and perennials.  Here’s a couple of the more natural displays.

Kew Botanical Garden - London

Hyde Park, London

Golden Gate Park of London,  Hyde Park is just as beautiful and beloved.  I love the way they mow the paths through the open grasslands.  We enjoyed a pitcher of Pimm's cooler on the most perfect sunny day.   It had been raining for months.  We experienced Londoners soaking up the Sun.  We did too.

Chelsea Garden Show, London 2012

This one may be my favorite if I can say that.  This show was amazing and it blew my mind.  This is the work of Arne Maynard, a self taught German around my age.  There's hope.
