  1. Beautiful pictures! Hopefully I will get around to reading some more of her writings on gardening soon.

  2. I'm sure the condition of her garden (when she was in charge) looked like ours, since she spent most of her time running off to France with Violet, and occasionally Virginia.

  3. Tim, what wonderful photos! My heart's desire is to go on a garden tour through the UK. Not sure if it'll ever actually happen, but a girl can dream.....thanks as always for sharing.

  4. If she were around, she certainly would be in the garden with hedge sheers in hand.

  6. Although I have moved away from it in my current gardens, I still goe for the English Country style.

    Sackville-West & the Bloomsbury group still fascinate.
