Dartington Hall Gardens

The rain cleared this afternoon so we took my mother to see the snowdrops in Dartington Hall Gardens.  They were out in the hedges as we drove along and lots in the banks of the gardens.

There were a few crocuses out, but most were still to flower.  We saw one clump of primroses and quite a few hellebores.


The witchhazel trees were at their best and the myrtle smelling lovely.

After tea at the Cider Press we walked a short way along the river.  Snowdrops were there along the bank.  They are supposed to be in perfusion further down the river, but it was too wet and far for my mother to walk.  Another time, or year.
