Then there was another garden

I am not so much into horticultural stuff, but the Chanticleer Gardens were something else.  We went on the recommendation of the lady (who happened to be from Santa Barbara) working at TJ's 'eat at Joe's' stand. She mentioned it as we were shopping, and instantly three customers chimed in that it was the best garden on the east coast, so we had to go.
It was 35 acres of absolutely beautiful, even if I say so myself.
So if you are ever in the area of Wayne, PA, this is a place to see for sure.
Here are some of the pictures Patricia took. They are beautiful, but even they don"t do justice to the place.

Hydrangeas were everywhere

Three serpentine gardens were of three kinds of kale.
