This is the way into the rock garden.

The path weaves it's way through or you can walk along higher then down stairs and back in amid the rocks.
The plants come from all over the world.
You can see the top of the Conservatory at the side of the rock garden.
I love how these plants fit themselves in a corner and make it their own.
A mass of white flowers cascading down the rocks.
Some small ferns.
A small waterfall, which I love, natural stones with the water running over.
The full view.

NOW this is ME too... but alas no space!
ReplyDeleteJust adore rock gardens and was lucky enough to have them to enjoy in my old family home!
Good luck with yours. Shall be keeping a keen interest here.
Same here,love these beds but finding the right place for a much smaller version in the garden will be hard but hopefully possible!
DeleteWow, how Kew has changed! It was always gorgeous, we used to go there at least once every 4 weeks when my childrn were small. When h was born in 1978, it was 2p to get in. It rose to the dizzy heights of 20p for me and 10p for each hcild by their early school days. But U was shocked when Jake told me how mch entrance cost last year as it is, for some, their local park. Now see why!
ReplyDeleteHowever, it is more than a park by a long way. It's a major research centre for the world and incredibly beautiful. One of the things few thng still miss now I no am longer living in London.
2P !!! those days are soo long gone! Must have been lovely to have it so close that you could just go in whenever you wanted. It would take a good couple of days to see everything properly you can become a member and then visit whenever you like with a family/friend on same ticket and we'd be so tempted if it was not such a trek to get there.
DeleteBrian used to live really near Kew too and regularly went there 'back in the day'....he loved it there too.
DeleteLove all these rock gardens too....you can see I'm reading from newest to oldest posts! I love the waterfall too, cascading down the rocks, yes, just perfect!
