May 31st 2010 - Calderstone's English Garden

Bank Holiday today so a trip to Calderstone's English Garden was arranged. There are so many beautiful parts to this garden. My favourite is the fern border - I love the way they appear from nowhere in late spring and unfurl to reveal their symmetry. The old potting sheds are in the background and the hedge surrounding the gardens beyond. I'll return to take some other shots to show this magical space in all its summer glory.
'Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer's lease hath all too short a date'
