SPECTACLE GARDEN

The Spectacle Garden is predominantly planted with lots of annuals. Hence, you can splashes of bright colours everywhere.

I also like the tiered boxy hedges of different plant species and colours and the deliberate placement of a soft drooping red Pennisetum right in front of them all. There was only one word to describe this - excellent!

Whilst I didn't quite like this particular Begonia, it was flowering profusely, so I couldn't help it but took the photos.

This garden is truly a spectacle with its interesting colours, textures, heights, composition etc.
