ELGIN OPEN GARDENS
Saturday 10th November '12

The Elgin Open Gardens gets better each year!  Here Sally and Dawn are seen taking a photograph of the enormous rose bloom in the TALL TREES garden. "Wow what compost do they use?"

Our first stop was FRESHWOODS where, as always the standard is extremely high.  Tea and cream scones was an absolute must on arrival.

The rare plants in this beautiful garden are unbelievable.  To hear visitors quoting the botanical names of the flowers makes you realize what an exotic garden it is! (and how little we actually know).

Our lunch stop was at HIGHLANDS ROAD ESTATE - lovely willow trees kept us all cool.  A glass or two of their sauvignon blanc was also ever so good, and added to the happy ambience at the table.

The choice for lunch was limited to pizzas and salads to make it easier on the restaurant and the ladies quickly decided what to eat.  The Thai Chicken salad was popular as was the vegetarian pizza; pity they ran out of mozzarella cheese..............bad planning!  (Or too many mouths to feed?)

Two beautiful ladies in the awesome garden AULDEARN where the views are spectacular.  The garden is on different levels and an absolute delight to see.

Tea and Rosemary biscuits completed our day out in the country.  We all returned to the city with happy souls and grateful hearts for what we had seen on this summers day.

Remember that children, marriages, and flower gardens
reflect the kind of care they get.
