Wakehurst Place

After Bateman's we set course for Wakehurst Place, another home and garden--mostly garden--and wound up spending the night in the caravan section of the cattle and sheep division of the South of England Show. Sort of a state fair. Really big. It's a long story. Anyhow, next morning we visited Wakehurst Place, which is the "country" site of Kew Gardens, the Royal Botanic Gardens. I think I'll let the pix narrate themselves. It is a gorgeous place, and on a Sunday morning, there were few people with whom to share it.
