Continuing our day's visit at Hamilton Gardens, January 24th...
 |
| Now in the traditional Maori garden, Te Parapara |
 |
| Moving right along again, the Tudor garden |
 |
Major feature of the Sustainable Backyard Garden is that someone
needs to be working in it... |
 |
Backyard garden furniture Gaudi might have approved of...note
embedded glass, tile, TV remote, utensils... |
 |
A highlight was the garden depicted in New Zealand author
Katherine Mansfield's classic "The Garden Party," which daughter
Rebecca taught for many years; she had heard of Hamilton Gardens
while visiting Mansfield's home in Wellington
|
 |
| An upper middle class garden party |
 |
| I might have been the chauffeur |
 |
| All set up on the tennis green |
 |
| The Picturesque Garden referencing Mozart's Magic Flute... |
 |
| Pappageno |
 |
| The Flute |
 |
| The Concept Garden left us, um, wondering... |
 |
Not sure where this fit in, but the Lewis Carroll quote goes "If
you don't know where you are going, any road will take you there" |
 |
| Down under astronomical depiction |
 |
| In the produce or kitchen garden |
