I'm told that "botanical gardens" was a phrase I mastered at a very early age. It was a place my mother often took my brother and I when we were little; to feed the ducks rather than to study botany, it must be said.
You used to be able to walk around for free, but now you have to pay. It's worth it though.
I still like to have a wander around from time to time and enjoy the flowers. If I go with the children from school I get to feed the ducks as well!
I last visited on Saturday morning before taking myself off to Strawberry Fair, so I had a colourful day, though the gardens were a good deal quieter.
Thank goodness for digital photography; I used to shoot ridiculous amounts of film here!
The glasshouses are spectacular and a welcome refuge if it rains.
And there's a nice cafe where you can sit outside and enjoy this view:
Take care.
