It looks stunning! Too many great shots to comment on them all, the yellow tulips certainly make a statement. Certainly looks full! I couldn't place the shrub/tree in the photo after the purple Iris, with the yellow fluffy flowers, any idea what that is?

Always takes my breath away. How big is it actually? It looks like a stately home garden. My tulips finished a while back.

Honey, that is Sambucus tigranii, those flowers turn to red berries, alot earlier to flower than most elder, it's a big one though.
Awww Stera, you're kind. The tulips are just going over now. I love the space and relative privacy, it's just over three acres in total :-)
Very difficult to capture the layout on camera :-)

beautiful Dawn, love that sambucus, how big is big though?
I love the idea of a bigger garden but struggle to keep on top of this one. I really must spend more time in the garden.

your tulips are gone over? mine have barely cleared the soil! lol... I think your garden qualifies as psycho therapy. I know I feel happier having seen it! Superlative!

Absolutely beautiful Dawn. What is the shrub with long leaves and clusters of yellow flowers please? Love those lemon tulips!

Seaburn, it's probably ten foot by five foot, I do spend alot of time in the garden, I mean alot. You are kind Lori :-)
Karen thanks, that's the Sambucus tigranii, very early compared to most elders, red berries follow.

Thanks ladies, I'm used to the space but sometimes it still shocks me a bit. I do put lots of time into it, I mean lots.

Thanks Dawn for letting me know it's a Sambucus, much more impressive than the usual ones, might look out for that.
