Here are some
more pictures from my visit to Chanticleer Garden in Wayne PA. I am very pleased to
say it is a really special garden. I took lots of excellent pictures and
will be creating a special album for you to enjoy.
A single blue flower on a big
leaf hydrangea. In our climate, blue hydrangeas are a little
unreliable. They flower on old wood and if this is damaged we
will get very few flowers
Some of the variegated hostas
make such a gorgeous splash of color . They are so easy to grow
and multiply readily each year.
How about this for a lovely
display. A basin of water with all kinds of orange flowers floating.
Magic!
One of my favorite ornamental
trees . The Crimson Frost Birch is an absolute gem. It has purple
leaves and white bark and, unlike many other birches, it is very
disease free.
Annuals can add a splash of
color and this mixture of red and orange certainly dose that
The 'New' ruin at Chanticleer. A folly
that will create romance in the years to come. At the moment it needs
a little more greenery!

Annuals don't have to be planted every
year. The purple leafed perilla seeds itself freely. It certainly
creates an amazing color contrast.

Part of the water feature in the lower
garden.

A water feature surrounding the house.
Shades of Spanish Moors. I like the Nepeta planted like a hedge on the
left. Easy to grow and some
varieties flower all year.
The entrance to the tennis court garden.
Lots of interesting plant choices.

The tropical courtyard...a delight of
differing foliage and water feature.

Part of this court yard is this very
pleasing use of a curly Willow. Not only is it attractive in the
summer but probably equally attractive in the winter. The stem color
can vary from yellow to red!
