Putting this here as I cannot really think of anywhere else on site. Spent the morning at Bodnant Gardens in North Wales. The Camellias are wonderful .Wish they would survive here, but photos are a poor second best

It certainly was. Also went To Aberconwy Nursery and bought rather a lot of new aplines for the Crevice Garden and the Glacial End Moraine.
