Gardener's Delight

I admire the statley gardens of Castle Howard and Scampston. The Walled Garden in Helmsley with an orchid house and probably my favourite is Hovingham Hall .Wolds Way Lavender has now returned to free entry for 2014 and is home to the only wood burning distillery in the country producing liquid gold.We are lucky to have all these in our area Ryedale. Not too far from here is Harrogate where you can wander around Harlow Carr, The RHS, The Spring Flower fair is held in Harrogate in April.There was a good presence of displays at Thirsk the other week .I took a few photos to tempt you to create your own Garden of Eden.
