I've been to Hever Castle!!! Isn't that the one where Ann Boylen lived???
My fav english garden spot has to be RHS Wisley though Alan Bloom's the Dell Gardens and his son Adrian Bloom's Foog yBottom are pretty good too. I have my picture taken with each of them last time I went.

Great pictures!!

Lovely! We were there ages ago, and hubby for once didn't complain about "another castle" because he loved the gardens.

Hi,
Yes it was where Ann Boylen grew up. Our local garden centre arranges day trips, we are going to Great Dixter

in July and Wisley in Aug.

What a remarkable castle, as well as the surrounding grounds. The picture out over the water is so lovely, and what pretty flowers. Wonder how long it took to clip all those bushes so perfectly. Thank you for sharing this, it's been a great education!

Great Dixter is pretty interesting!!!
I really enjoy the gift shop at Wisley as I belive they have the largest collection of gardening book for sale!!
