I’ve been inspired to take a backward look by Barry Parker’s posts, sharing his trip to many wonderful Welsh gardens this past September. These include, by coincidence, the Cowbridge Physic Garden and the National Botanic Garden of Wales. Barry reminded me of our UK trip in 2008, including a visit to Bodnant Gardens (a few photos here; I’ll try to add more). Then I remembered my cousin’s garden.
She is definitely a real person, and hers is definitely a real garden – and an inspiring one,

too. A few miles from Prestatyn in North Wales, it’s gifted with a great setting. But the design is all her own.

Thanks for this beautiful glimpse of a lovely garden in the Welsh countryside! Love the deep color of that lavender.
Gorgeous gardens! Thanks for sharing!
that top photo – WOW. Amazing garden!
Hi Helen,
Thanks for sharing this. Gardening is obviously in your families genes. My Welsh travel posts are almost coming to an end, except for one more on the plants at the NatBot.
Maybe the sea view is of the Irish Sea, the North Sea is on the other side of the country!
Sandra, you've uncovered my ignorance of oceanography! I'll change it, thanks.
