Brighter, Bolder & Bigger Flowers at Richmond Park

You know how I said, almost a month ago, that it was the perfect time to go to the Isabella Plantation in Richmond Park? Yeah, I take that back, because NOW is the best time to go. It was impossible to look anywhere without having bright pink azaleas in my face, and I absolutely loved it. It was so pretty, it was unreal. Do you see those things below? They're photos... They may look like they're from a crazy colourful alternate universe where Brexit isn't happening and unicorns exist (Wait what? Of course unicorns exist in this world what are you trying to tell me?!), but they're just from plain ol' England.

Get ready for colour so explosive you'd have to find cover from all the shrapnel...








Why walk when you can strut in the sun?




In my element







The next few photos are of the Still Pond and the most famous feature of the Isabella Plantation, after the flowers. At this time of the year especially it's so beautiful as there's a wall of brightly coloured azaleas that reflect in the water.

Wait a sec whilst I get that perfect panorama...











Never too old to climb trees!


I love you
