My Village Had a NGS Garden Open Day

Every picture is gorgeous Neellan

What a wonderful sense of community you have. I wish I could see more of this in the USA. Unfortunately, as time goes on I see less and less.

I hope you had a lovely cream tea, too! I really enjoy looking at all the different gardens opening as a group, and you did too - thank you for sharing.

Beautiful blog Neelan, love the fun scarecrows really inventive!

The gardens look gorgeous, all so different.....that rose is glorious as are the gardens basking in the sunshine

What a pretty village you live in,Neellan..and the gardens and scarecrows have had so much thought put into them...I love each and every one ,especially those Achillea's around the Sundial . I have been thinking about getting some of those colours..Glad you had such a lovely day.:o) x

Thank you Klahanie the sunshine helped :o)

I waslooking at the scarecrows again and in photo5 the parachutist looks for all the world to be resting his feet on the house roof and gable end....?

Some of our villages do this occasionally and I always enjoy wandering round to see what other people are doing in their gardens. I loved seeing your village gardens and the scarecrows are brilliant. Thank you for the tour :)
