The Famous Five go all horticultural at Wisley

The Famous Five provide the summer theme for the Top Terrace. It took me a while to work out why they'd be quite so fascinated by the Agave but then I wondered if it was supposed to be a fountain. Timmy wisely standing well back. Those leaves are vicious.

A gorgeous baking hot day and at long last we went out collecting: Pulsatilla of various sorts, Helleborus and Crocus. Bliss. Photo of seed collecting from a Crocus's perspective in Extras.
