What a great day! The Moorcraft stuff is ooooooooooooooooo! I really love seeing the mini show gardens and lost my heart to the paved patio with the open shade structure.
Is that a giant snail in the 4th to the last picture?
I see no reason why a person couldn't make some of those Highland cattle, for instance a person who had a bunch of fabric scraps left over from making dolls. This could be you! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=STYiWIZ-2IQ

A lot of the outdoor stuff is great. I wouldn't mind taking a bath in that tub.

Lovely Cheery - its been years since I've been, maybe next year. I had not realised that there was a perennial foxglove - I guess it is different to the Foxglove Tree? I just discovered that existed during my visit to Ralph Court. I love Moorcroft pottery and have a few pieces some that I bought from the factory shop ( which is a joy if you have never been well worth a visit) and some inherited from my Mum who adored it. I have not seen any of there modern pieces until your photos but it is so instantly recognisable whether pieces were designed in the 1890s or today . I really like the puffin plaque in particular.

After Cheery's first sentence, I wondered what foxglove is called in French and looked it up -- digitale. Anyway, the article I read said foxgloves exist in annual and perennial variety but often the perennials give lots of blooms the second year and then die, although they tend to re-seed.

Looks a smashing show. Much nicer than Chelsea. Any cacti?
