Whitley (A Southern Highland's Garden)













I visited this wonderful old garden this week - it's open for just two days every year!  It was a beautiful day and the roses and other flowers were, as usual, wonderful.

    What a very special and beautiful garden. Lucky you to see it all in person. I love the boxwood hedges surrounding the flowers.

    What a beautiful place! Love the house in the background of the flowers. I spent a day outside myself. It's nice and warm here right now.
