The Avenue

The Avenue
A trip near Wrexham in Wales brings us to the magnificent Erddig Hall and its gardens.
Here is the formal avenue of pleached lime trees creating lines of rich golden hues for us.

“Pleached lime trees (Tilia europaea or cordata) are excellent winter structure plants, featuring a clear, formal framework of branches and striking red-toned twigs. As deciduous trees, they lose leaves in winter but maintain screening through dense, interlaced branches.” Google

Well designed gardens are interesting in all seasons. A great perspective, the golden orange tones contrast well to the green.

I was pleasantly surprised with this garden Gudrun. A lot of variety here and these trees, I do not recall seeing anywhere else before. I seem to be seeing a lot of formal gardens at the moment, probably because Eileen likes them so much. Glad you liked the shot.

Regards. Herb

Beautifully captured from a great perspective Herb. The trees look great standing like soldiers waiting to be inspected, and the symmetry is almost perfect.

The trees in the centre at the rear of the frame are beautiful. Lovely light and colour too.

Herb Riddle club has replied to Keith Burton club
I am glad you saw these as standing soldiers Keith as that is exactly what they reminded me of too, the Irish guards with their bearskins caps. I am quite sure it looks even better in the height of summer. Glad you liked it.

Cheers. Herb

Herb Riddle club has replied to TOZ club
Nice to be back Gordon but that trip would have been nice a few days longer. A lot of photos so time to dig through them now. A great garden here, not too showy but these hedges looked good. Yes the weather was good after the first half of the week.

Nice leading lines and colours Herb, you could have 'cheated' and cropped the left hand side to get the bottom corners matching. It's not the venue I was expecting I thought it was going to be the National Memorial Arboretum

Herb Riddle club has replied to Peter Castell club
Thanks Peter. I did indeed think about a crop on the left but I was feeling lazy :) I imagine that there are a few lines of pleached lime trees around but I have not seen them. I have not been to the NMA.

Enjoy the day
