Back to Hampton Court Palace and today I am showing you the gardens. I wanted to give you a few days to digest the 'Manners'! I assume are now ready for the pretty pictures.
When I saw the gardens I was whisked to Versailles. Flat open landscape and fountains.
The Wisteria was in full bloom
The trees (Yew I think) are shaped like toadstools. I don't know the significance.
Spring blooms, tulips.
Hampton Court homes the largest vine in the world. It dates to 1768 and is still bearing fruit.
Lovely pictures, thanks for another tour.
