Wowser, I have now, Neil! Thank you for pointing me in the right direction, there's already so much to take in here on ATP! I was particularly struck by the beautiful displays of gladioli, the violas (I have "Johnny Jump-Ups -- I think the official name is "Helen Mount" ?), and the topiaries. Also just by how ancient the place is... King Henry VIII !! It's always such a reality check for me, how young the USA actually is. We've been watching the Tour de France on TV and enjoying the "tour" more than the actual race, so interesting to see the views of the old castles and the towns.

I hope you are having a wonderful gardening season!

Sandy
