Geum Rivale by nicolaeastwood

Geum Rivale

I spent my second day at the Chelsea Flower Show.

These were one of my favourite plants in the First Touch Garden (did I mention it won Gold?!!)

It was hard to leave tonight knowing I won't see the garden again that has been so loved by everyone that has seen it, and means so much to those of us connected with the NNU at St Georges'

Beautiful capture of an unusual plant great glint of gold top left :/)

@nicolaeastwood it's been 8 and strong winds rain + grey skies in the Nth East all day some Spring : you would be delirious at the sight of the sun it's almost become a distant memory :-)

Really a great shot the colors compliment so well the bright green is so wonderful lighting up the background, while the flowers just stretch bend and dance for us.

Didn't see this - lovely seed heads. It was nice to meet you. It must be strange coming down after Chelsea. I only ever go for a couple of hours but find that it keeps me on a high for days afterwards. Being totally immersed in it, even if the weather was grotty, must make it very difficult to leave.
