Chelsea Physic Gardens
« on: December 26, 2005, 15:20:47 »
Has anyone visited these gardens and if so, what did you think?  To my shame I'd never heard of them until today, even though I work within walking distance.   ::)  It certainly looks like a jewel from the website.   :)

Well, I was gonna ask anyone who has been when the best time to visit is, but I reckon June/July.  Not open very often though so I'd have to take a Wednesday afternoon off.  Oh, the hardship!  ;)

It does indeed look a lovely place to visit.

I think I may try and persuade Rosebud to have a trip there with me in the spring/summer as London is just a 30 min train journey away for us.

Pah!  I defy anyone to try and get Rosebud to take it easy  >:(  (I have to be careful, I do believe she's just logged in to A4A hehe)

Yes, have had a lovely Christmas, thank you.  Just ambling about enjoying the peace and quiet today as I'm back to work tomorrow.  Hope your Christmas was good too?

i can see the chelsea physic garden from my office window :)
it's a great place to visit, open wednesday and sunday pm. during chelsea flower show week, they are open every day. it's well worth going in the lunch hour if you can - the smells of the flowers and herbs in bloom is something else!
Gardening in SE17 since 2005 ;)
