Garden mazes






Floating water plants around floating homes. Just like other houses may have grass or flowers in their surrounding garden, the floating village has floating water plants. Often a few house boats are grouped around a single tree.
If ever you travel to Cambodia and Siem Reap - then enjoy a tour by boat to the floating village. best time is late afternoon hours just before sunset.
More pictures from same province Jungle wallpaper and some travel information Cambodia may motivate you for a visit to the kingdom of lotus flowers.

red_rhythm_by_lee_belgrau.jpgAt Tatton this year, colour themed planting schemes where the tones of the planting pick up the colours painted on the fencing or hard landscaping are all the rage. One of the best is the fiery red scheme of 'Red Rhythm' designed by Lee Belgrau and Reaseheath College, a design where the scarlet ton es of the crocosmia, dahlia and helenium, complement the red paint used in the hard landscaping.

If you prefer things a bit paler then the yellow theme, used by Phillipa Probert in her office courtyard entitled 'Revolution'. This would be a welcome retreat for any office worker, taking time out from the stresses of work to relax among the pastel plantings of white agapanthus and pale yellow anthemis.

revolution_by_philipa_probe.jpgSticking with the single colour theme, the bright orange colours of 'Lose the Shoes' are the perfect antidote to a grey day (and today was very grey). Here, designer Bernie Quinn has carefully woven together bright orange crocosmia, geum and dark flowered Cosmos atrosanguineus, the perfect complement to the vibrant orange walls.
