Today my cousin and I go to the “RHS Hampton Court Palace Flower Show”. It was huge – had heaps of show gardens and displays of flowers and stalls to buy things – WOW!
Most gardens had a story behind them and once you knew that it made the gardens make sense. The photos show the things I liked best.
We arrived just after 11am and didn’t leave till 4pm. Then we went back to my cousins to have tea, with the plan of going to bed early as we are hoping to go to Wimbledon tomorrow.
