I had a stall today, at the plant fair at Doddington Hall, it was a lovely day, sold lots of plants. And for one day perhaps, the walled forecourt of the old seventeenth century house, which seems such an austere garden today, looks as gardens of that time were intended when made, crowded with servants, family and guests.

I love my bit of decadence, just don't get enough of it. The bowls club asked me to be Vice Chairman, but strangely they have havn't asked me to organize any vice yet.
@Fernapple Typical fuddy duddies!
Beautiful place for a plant sale. Thanks for sharing.

Looks like a very nice event. Were you selling for yourself or for a cause? What plants did you have? I wish I could do the same - I have masses I would like to share but it doesn't happen here in central Spain

They are my own plants, mainly perennials. I go to these evennts mainly for the public expossure to promote the nursery, but the sales are useful too. It also gets me out and usually I come back with a lot of plants for the garden too.
What a lovely place, what dreams are made of for me!

Fun!!!! The weather played along.
Did you get anything special or different?
I went to a local plant sale yesterday, came home with 11 pots.

Weather was beautiful, after a week of nearly solid rain. I go mainly to sell but of course I came home with nine pots for my own garden, so you beat me on numbers, mainly Lupins, but a lovely Vebena too to bring the butterflies into the garden.

Posted by KateOahuI saw some pretty flowers on a walk today. I’d never seen a white Hibiscus before. And I do not know what the pink flowers are.
