Parabola at The Newt

Parabola at The Newt
Originally designed by Henry Hobhouse II as a walled kitchen garden, the D-shaped Parabola is now home to a collection of apple trees, arranged in a Baroque-style maze. Every apple growing county in England is represented, with trees intricately trained to form curious shapes.

Me ha recordado a los costosos y reducidos platos de un restaurante con estrellas Michelin. Son temas distintos, pero la comparativa es por lo selecto; de un menú y de un jardín. Buena presentación y calidad, en este caso en The Newt. Se ve que tiene forma de “D”, como también las forjas de hierro que adornan la muralla, en posición de abanicos. El laberinto es evidente en la preciosa fotografía de este moderno huerto, Rosa.

This musty be the most orderly and attractive kitchen garden I have ever seen, Rosa. I really must visit here - wherever it is. Are you inundated with water where you are?
20 months ago.
Rosalyn Hilborne club has replied to Amelia club
It is an amazing place Amelia. I have only seen a small part of it so far. My ticket is for a year, so many more visits on the cards. No flooding here, but other parts of Somerset have had problems. Poor Shrewsbury suffers in these conditions :-(

This tradition of arrangement of these gardens, here in more tiers, is original and pleasant.
You captured it from an interesting point of view and under a quite threatening atmosphere that confers on it a palpable melancholy and peace!
Happy Sunday to you, Rosa.
20 months ago.
Rosalyn Hilborne club has replied to Eric Desjours club
Thank you for your kind comments Eric. I will be visiting this place in each season to witness the changes. I am lucky that it is just 10 minutes drive away :-)
Happy Sunday, Rosa.

Its always good to see and indeed explore a kitchen garden Rosa. A fine one here in this shape. I half expected to see a large satellite dish or telescope with you title -(oops my technical background is showing :) ).

Enjoy the day. Herb

Rosalyn Hilborne club has replied to Herb Riddle club
It's the former kitchen garden Herb. I will show the present one sometime. I hope the title didn't cause a disappointment ;-)) Many thanks & wish you a good week ahead.
