A lovely time exploring the conservatory, sniffing out the Titan Arum, searching for the remaining butterflies (two) and watching the steam come down onto the lily pads of the Victoria Amazonica (giant waterlily).

The Fabulous Kew Gardens
What can one say about Kew that would do it justice. They have now opened the lovely butterfly section at the end of the Cactus House.
Fantastic areas of meadow land and woods, where one can feel in the wilderness and there is no-one else around.
I wish it were my back garden!

Leaves and Stamen
What could I possibly add to the most wonderful, tranquil gardens in London: Kew. A haven for the Parakeets, the old and the very young. Super for taking close-ups, but really would recommend a tripod to eliminate the shake of the camera.

The Lovely Kew Gardens
On a visit to Kew Gardens on Saturday in good spring weather, we walked to the quieter areas to the far left of the park, where a variety of pines grow. Some of the bark was so beautiful, that I had to capture the silvery sheen and wonderful textures.
And of course, the underside of a ... (large leafed plant that great for standing under in rain)!
