Daily exercise and lunch at RHS Hyde Hall with my darling wife ❤️❤️ #rhshydehall #walking #horticulture

@Hesperalis I prefer the single dahlias for the same reason.

Two years ago, my wife and I went to #RHSHydeHall. At the Global Growth Vegetable Garden, they have many interesting, unusual food plants including a bed of #dahlias. Put a new perspective for me on that labour-intensive "ornamental". 🙂

Worth a visit! But you probably know. 🙂

#SilentSunday #Gardens. A view from the dry garden across the meadow at #RHSHydeHall. The garden features draught-tolerant plants including grasses, phormiums and verbena bonariensis.

Last evening we attended RHS* Hyde Hall in Essex for their annual Glow event, which is essentially a night walk through the gardens, which are illuminated with multicoloured lights and projections. I took many photos, but I thought this one, if you squint a bit, looks like a burst of fireworks.

@Sheril: Snap! Attended a similar event, Glow, this evening at the Royal Horticultural Society Hyde Hall gardens in Essex, UK. Hot chocolate and donuts helped keep out the cold.
