I completely agree with you about the beauty of the English gardens!<br /><br />Casa Mariposa, how delightful to read that my series about the Garden at Ringmer Park has provided a mini-vacation for you :-)! Thank you so much for letting me know the name of your beautiful rose of sharon shrub. I could get hooked up to flowering shrubs, too!<br /><br />Marijke, yeah, the borders were masterfully planted in this garden. Thanks for telling me that the plant that I didn't know is a symphytum and also for the warning that it might be spreading a little bit too eagerly. I planted some 'Black & Blue' salvias in my garden and even though they are pretty they are really invasive. I don't think I would like to have another plant like this in my yard. <br /><br />Olga, glad you liked this garden!<br /><br />Christinaorganicgardendreamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11122516730008378516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5286710136867815403.post-6375248123433066622012-06-27T11:18:48.812-07:002012-06-27T11:18:48.812-07:00Amazing garden!Amazing garden!Olgahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10491354190212675684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5286710136867815403.post-73164110779563010812012-06-26T11:58:31.052-07:002012-06-26T11:58:31.052-07:00Thanks for sharing your beautiful photo's of t...Thanks for sharing your beautiful photo's of the english gardens.

I agree with you this garden was very well maintained and that greatly added to its beauty. <br /><br />Lyn, wow you are impressing me with your plant knowledge. Thanks for helping me out again and identifying the plant unknown to me as an ornamental comfrey!<br /><br />Dani, you are right it is a very English garden. I am glad you like the photos of the tulips. They are my favorites, too. <br /><br />Rosemary, thanks for confirming that the plant in question is comfrey. I have to say that I am truly astonished that you are able to name the aquilegia! We have seen so many different varieties of them in England on our trip, that I was thinking that it is close to impossible. I am thoroughly impressed :-)!<br /><br />Mark and Gaz, thanks for your kind words about my post. Blues and purples, besides white, of course, are my favorite colors in the garden and the ones chosen for this border had been particularly pretty. <br /><br />Bengts fotoblogg, it is nice to know that someone, who is writing a photo blog likes my pictures!<br /><br />Christinaorganicgardendreamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11122516730008378516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5286710136867815403.post-10238839898644638782012-06-25T07:00:12.099-07:002012-06-25T07:00:12.099-07:00Great shots, beautiful flowers.Great shots, beautiful flowers.Bengts fotoblogghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06892173064572393458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5286710136867815403.post-87336919817389323282012-06-25T05:16:33.996-07:002012-06-25T05:16:33.996-07:00A great conclusion to your trilogy of post about t...A great conclusion to your trilogy of post about this fab garden!
