Holehird Hydrangeas

At the end of a very wet week in The Lake District I visited the Lakeland Horticultural Society's garden at Holehird - a beautiful 10 acre site with wonderful views over Lake Windermere - weather permitting!!!
My main objective was to look at the National Collection of Hydrangeas held here. In spite of the rain, I did manage to take a few shots of their large collection. I just wish I could have returned a little later to see more of the later flowering varieties - maybe next year! Remind me to carry an umbrella for a future visit!!

A superb selection of very good images and very helpful for reminding myself what the plants look like, particularly the Hydrangeas and grasses
