Dappled Shade, RHS Bridgewater
Cool and pleasant walking at RHS Bridgewater, near Manchester, under the established woodland canopy.

A colour photograph in portrait format. It shows a tree leaning to the right with a canopy of lovely green leaves. Sunshine from above creates a dappled shade on the path below. Just seen, in the field beyond, is a black pig snuffling around.

Just before Christmas last year, I attended RHS Bridgewater's Glow display. Fabulous! A dozen of my favourites.

The #daffodils are blooming and I happened upon The Daffodil King, Peter Barr, #Tooting.

A blue plaque recognizing Peter Barr, the Daffodil King, on the side of a small apartment building. A close up of a Blue Plaque that reads "Peter Barr 1826 - 1909 'The Daffodil King' Pioneered new daffodils at plant nurseries in Tooting Placed by public subscription" A sepia-toned portrait of Peter Barr. He is wearing a black beret far back on his head, small oval glasses, and has a tremendous salt and pepper beard with wildish white curls of hair over his ears. He is white skinned with piercing small, pale eyes and is looking off into the distance with a serious expression that is the tiniest bit playful around the edges. A black and white engraving of a daffodil.
