The Formal Garden in England...

...or perhaps, West Virginia.


It is that time of the season when the garden is dying. Though it is still hanging on, much to my shame, I am already thinking of next year. I found The Formal Garden in England by Reginald Blomfield and illustrated by F. Inigo Thomas laying on top of a pile of books I moved and soon I was lost.



I am fond of this garden in Shipton Moyne...

and this one in Rycott...

but I am leaning toward this little number in Badminton.

It's never too early to dream...

or to get the tiller started!
