Always A Flower - The Dahlia Walk

avatar
(Edited)

On a recent visit to Biddulph Grange and its gardens, we had a walk through 'Dahlia Walk'.

The dahlias are planted in June so there's no frost around. Although, living in the UK the weather isn't always reliable.

They have 'old style' dahlias that would have been planted in the 1800s, such as the pompom, mixed in with modern ones. When I was a child, my dad always planted these old school dahlias in the garden, so it was a little nostalgic for me.

We saw some beautiful fuchsias as well. Again, flowers from my childhood.

A lovely colourful walk that brightened up a somewhat dull day.

I was going to ask how you come across beautiful places and flowers, like these then I remembered how often you take a walk.

You sure had a great childhood.

In my day kids went out to play. We only came back for food lol. We used to walk everywhere so I’ve carried on with it. I'm hoping all this exercise will have done me good at a later date. 🙂

Beautiful flowers! I have always liked dahlias! The stonework in that last shot is really special, too!
