Blazing Tatton

As predicted the temperature soared on Wednesday - the weather station hit an all time high of 33.8C. You could have sold shade by the square foot at Tatton and there were some frayed tempers as people vied for the top spots in the covered cafes. What of the show itself? Some great back to backs - I especially liked the black and yellow sunken garden and 'Eat my garden' by Jacqui Brocklehurst which was featured on the BBC last night. The other great aspect of Tatton is the regional nurseries that display their wares - it's a great way to find suppliers you wouldn't otherwise come across.

I took over 100 photos so rather than clutter up the blog, I've put them on photobucket as two slideshows - one for gardens and one for plants and nurseries. Here's the link to the garden photos:
