Glasgow Botanical Garden - Scotland
National collection of tree ferns.
Learning the names of plants is the botanical garden best attribute for me. This is where I can find out what's what. So I can research those items more thoroughly. But the glass house usually don't offer me much for potential plant material. I tend to love the building more than the plants. This is from the civil engineer in me. I really appreciate the Victorian engineering.

Castle & Gardens of Mey - Scotland
A remote village on Scotland’s north coast. Although it’s the first week of May, we experience 4 degree C and sleet. Along with a steady wind from the north to chill one’s bones. The gardener was turning the soil in a bed mixing in compost or manure. Soil was heavy and looked like hard work. One to keep him warm.
