Six on Saturday – 9th July 2022

So we have just returned from a trip to Wales to see family and friends. When in Wales it is always a joy to visit the botanic garden. We spent a lovely day there with family and friends and so I dedicate this Six on Saturday post to those special people. You know who you are.

The only problem is it is very hard to chose just six images. There was a beautiful display of numerous day lilies in many wonderful shades of yellow, orange and reds.

Next a calendula – almost metalic copper in colour found in the herb garden.

There were some stunning roses – I wish I could share the scent of this one.

In the tropical greenhouse there were some amazing pitcher plants.

I didn’t actually go into the domed greenhouse – too hot for me. But it looks amazing even from the outside.

And finally for now, I am not sure what this was – but I am guessing maybe some kind of salvia.

Thoroughly recommend a visit if you have not been. Thanks to The Propagator for hosting Six on Saturday.
