A travel diary: Kew Gardens - Mediterranean and Japanese



Hello all! In this post you can see some compact camera shots from the beautiful Mediterranean Garden:



King William's Temple, built in 1837 for Queen Victoria.


















I dedicate the first part of this post to the Mediterranean side of my family. :) Ciao a tutti!

The second part, the Japanese Landscape at Kew, I would like to dedicate to two blogger friends, Pirkko and Gunilla, whose green and lush gardens have particularly inspired me recently.











Platycodon grandiflorus






Have a relaxing weekend!

Rauhaisaa viikonloppua!

  12. I would really like a peacock for my garden, but I hear they are very noisy.

    1. Interesting. :) Unfortunately our climate would probably be too cold for them.

  15. Upeita puutarhoja. Kävin noissa osissa heinäkuussa. Entisöidyt kasvihuoneet tekivät erityisen vaikutuksen, mutta olo niissä oli tukalaa kolmenkympin helteellä.

    1. Heinäkuu oli Lontoossa(kin) tosiaan kuuma. Meille sattui pilvinen ja viieähkö sää Kew'ssa käynnin ajaksi, mutta muuten oli liian kuumaa tehokkaaseen kaupunkiin tutustumiseen.

  16. Lucky you. My daughter is a arborist and a gardener and such a dear. I'd love to reward her with a trip to Kew Gardens during their garden show in May, but she has only one week's vacation and her family takes that as a family. I love your photos. I suppose you brought home a lot gardening dreams and ideas. Lovely photos. I felt as though I were there.

  17. I love your photos of the Mediterranean garden, Sarah. I also liked Platycodon, it's very beautiful.
    Kew Gardens is an inexhaustible source of impressions, new ideas, bright and beautiful photos.
    Happy new week!
