Let's Fall In Love

I have decided to share with you for GBBD a personal video I made for my friends when we were having the time of our lives enjoying the gardens of New Zealand. This is a departure from my usual format of presenting my posts on botanic gardens, but it was such fun making the video and we had such wonderful memories of those beautiful gardens that I think you might also like to view how we were falling in love...with the spectacular blooms and trees and garden features...have a giggle at our antics.


Let's fall in love
Why shouldn't we fall in love?
Our hearts are made of it
Let's take a chance
Why be afraid of it

Let's close our eyes and make our own paradise
Little we know of it 
Still we can try
to make a go of it


This song is dedicated to all garden lovers...to make our own paradise of our gardens!
Thank you Carol for Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day, and thank you Anni for Thursday Theme Song. Do take a walk over there at Carol's and Anni's to see  what you're missing over there.

A Joy To Behold

The Wel
The Wellington Botanic Garden was delightful. From the East Entrance, we travelled along William Wakefield Way past the Succulent Garden, the Rock Garden until we got to the Fragrant Garden. Every plant was at its best behaviour. We were pleased to make their acquaintance. However, when we got to the Main Garden, all decorum was abandoned as we excitedly approached all manner of tulips in full bloom in this part of the Botanic Garden. Here, the seasonally changing floral displays are featured, and we were so fortunate to be able to feast our eyes on a host of multi-coloured tulips. It was truly a joy to behold.
