On Sunday we took a trip to Sheffield Park Gardens. The gardens are owned by the National Trust and were designed by 'Capability' Brown in the 18th century and extended by it's owner Arthur.G.Soames at the beginning of the 20th century. The whole gardens were full of colourful  rhododendrons everywhere you looked. As well as a couple of giant redwoods and  a lake where you can glimpse part of the Gothic house. The whole place is really beautiful and I fully recommend a visit.

Fell asleep beneath the flowers...

Just a hint of summer in the air today. Don't you just love Spring flowers? Right now the whole house smells like Hyacinth's. According to my language of flowers book, a daffodil means regard. Also a dandelion means rustic oracle. I don't know why I didn't look it up sooner. Also I brought a new book, I've been wanting to read some more poetry lately, so here's my starting piece. Faber and Faber have the loveliest covers.
