Hi Nicola -

We should start a game - like "Through the Maze" or something. You know those formal maze gardens? I love them. Maybe we could start with something like: I entered the Maze and at the first turn I found (something related to gardens that starts with 'A'). What do you think?

Thats is an Excellent game to play Phyllis, Thankyou.

So then, If I walk into the Maze at Hampton, I go around the corner, at the first turn I see some A Azaleas

Any one for a B?

After the Azaleas, I saw all the Begonias............

I took a sharp left at the Begonias and ran into a patch of Crocuses...

After the crocuses I turned into a long walk, at the end, after the turn was some beautiful Dog Wood.

E?

After checking out the Dog Wood I continued along the path until I reached a beautiful Evergreen tree that was creating a fork in the path.

N?

Ah yes I then spied some narsisus, poking their beautiful white trumpets, then I walked along and saw..........O

The narcissus were lovely and after them I saw som poinsettas. But, shouldn't we be on the letter 'H'? Nicola did 'D' then Alison jumped to 'N'. Guess it doesn't matter - it is a pretty garden anyway.

'Q'?

LOL - I got confused! All the word games on here are different some go alphabetical order or by last letter of the previous word - it is all a jumble!

Now back to originally schedule maze game...

As lovely as the poinsettias were I moved down the path to admire the lovely yellow Quintefeuille. (LOL - French flowers in an English Garden!)

R is next!

Ahh then I smelled some R eseda (mignonette) Which made stop in my tracks and SNIFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF! then I saw the leavy walk way and.....................S
