Littlebredy Walled Gardens ~ Dorset

In Victorian times, the 5-acre Gardens at Littlebredy were the 'productive grounds' of Bridehead, which is the mansion at the centre of the ancient Littlebredy estate. This means that the gardens were responsible for producing much of the fresh vegetables, fruits and flowers required to supply the Estate owners and the villagers.Today, the gardens are looked after through a not-for-profit Community Interest venture. They are located on a warm south-facing slope of the Bride Valley where the little River Bride rises and runs through the grounds.

A lovely, bright still life against that luxuriantly green background, Rosalyn. And the roundheaded garlic pip is pure delight!

Whoever made this display did it beautifully and you've taken advantage of it with this wonderful still life image.

The lavender is gorgeous, and I love the pretty and shapely jugs that some of it is displayed in. The green foliage makes a perfect backdrop.

I love the Allium in the PiP. The purple and green colour gradation in the flower heads is gorgeous and the bokeh background sets them off very well.

Two superb images................great work! Enjoy the rest of the weekend Rosa!

Rosalyn Hilborne club has replied to Keith Burton club
The beautiful display caught my eye straight away Keith. I would like to get the alliums for next year. They grow quite high and would make a lovely backdrop.

Thank you for your very kind comments.
Enjoy the sunny weekend and take care.

La mesa con jarrones y ramilletes de flores conforman un atractivo bodegón, que lo has situado acertadamente con un fondo verde uniforme de “colas de caballo”. El otro PiP es de una mezcla de colores en esas Allium que no había reparado nunca. Buen domingo, Rosa

Hi Rosa,
A very 'English Country Garden' picture, which really suits today's hot weather!!!
We have a lavender farm here, but it is nowhere near as pretty or productive as yours!
Best Wishes, a good week ahead, and keep safe!!
