On Sunday we drove to Port Logan to visit the Botanical Gardens there. It's a few years since we were last here and they seem to have been badly hit by the terrible frosts of last December. This area is usually frost free but the prolonged affect of that 2 week period seems to have taken its toll. Things are recovering slowly and hopefully there will be no real lasting damage.
The weather just down the coast was very misty and cold but in these sheltered gardens it was much warmer and for a brief period the sun actually got out.
These were in one of the greenhouses and a lovely display.
Gaye almost got last among this lot.
We spent quite a bit of time sitting by the pond watching the Giant Carp and it was very relaxing
These 3 trees were originally in a large greenhouse in the Botanical Gardens in Edinburgh but a year ago they were moved to Port Logan and are now gradually acclimatising to being outdoors.
As I forgot to note the names of all of these I will just let the photos do the talking.
