More from my trip to Tower Hill with Nan and her sister, Nish.
Another sculpture from the exhibit, Uprooted
View from the patio outside Farmer and the Fork Cafe.
Finally! A proper drink reference. I had a hibiscus iced tea along with a chicken salad sandwich and a bag of chips (crisps).
The sculpture moved in the breeze and on first glance looks like cymbals. As it moves you notice there are two cranes.
A new take on garden wall.
Vegetable and herb garden
I had never seen this blue flower before. Nan called them Lacy Hydrangea

Good morning, beautiful place enjoyed the tour. I have been drinking hibiscus teas too perfect for summer. Happy T
ReplyDeleteDoesn't iced hibiscus tea just scream Summer?
DeleteNice photos. I've never eaten at the Farmer and Fork Cafe but it sure does look yummy. And I love their living wall. I've wondered how I could put one up in my yard. (Along with many other things I have seen, none of which will probably ever happen-smile). Have a great T day and enjoy this beautiful weather. hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteThe Farmer and Fork Cafe is cafeteria style. I liked Twigs, the restaurant they had before. Indoor and outdoor dining under a tent. It just made the gardens feel a little more special.
DeleteI'm sure you can find a youtube video on how to create a living wall.
I really like that stone archway! The cafe sounds good, must make the hibiscus tea when the weaher is warmer. Happy T Day! Elle/EOTC xx
ReplyDeletethe stone arch is beautiful
DeleteA nice tour and boy, you left me hungry!
ReplyDeleteHave a happy T-Day!
Time for a snack!
DeleteMy kind of place to visit!
ReplyDelete😊
DeleteThat arch! OMG Color me impressed!
ReplyDeleteThe arch is amazing. Too bad it couldn't be relocated to the Zensical garden.
DeleteIt all looks so lush and beautiful, love that archway! Nice lunch and view too. Happy T day!
ReplyDeleteNo matter what season, the garden is always beautiful
DeleteI was also impressed by that stone arch, as well as the sculpture that had columns and arches in it. I had to enlarge the images and finally saw the cranes. Exceptionally clever.
ReplyDeleteYour sandwich is making me hungry. I would also like some hibiscus tea, since I have a full pound of it in my fridge.
Thanks for sharing the last of the Tower Hill photos, your sandwich, and your tea with us for T this Tuesday, dear CJ.
The stone arch is new and just magnificent to see it held in place by gravity and not mortar
DeleteI thoroughly enjoyed my visit to Tower Hill CJ! I feel the need to visit a Garden in my future.. Too bad the closest ones are 3 hours away... thats one problem living in West Central TX .. everything is far away.. OH! And eating outside!! Could not even imagine doing that here.. lol Happy T day! Hugs! deb
ReplyDeleteWe had the perfect weather to enjoy being outside. This past week we had a 7 day heatwave. Not nearly as oppressive as what you have, but unusual for this area. I don't mind heat and humidity. It beats shoveling snow
DeleteWow, what an amazing place to visit! Thanks for sharing these wonderful photos, the views and scenery look so beautiful 😊. Happy T Day wishes! Hugs Jo x p.s. I'm posting about bacon butties this week on my blog as a result of your question. Hope it helps! x
ReplyDeleteGlad I could help you with a blog topic 😉
DeleteThank you for showing more pictures of this beautiful place. I would enjoy a visit here very much.
ReplyDeleteThis is only a small sample of the garden. There were other trails to follow, but more challenging to walk along and Nish needed to walk on a flat surface
DeleteI missed T completely today but am happy to see what a delightful garden. I'll bet it's lovely year 'round.
ReplyDeleteIt's a gorgeous and peaceful place all year round. The only season I have not seen there is Winter
DeleteThat's a place I would love to walk through - looks so beautiful there ..also that egg salad sandwhich...I'm in!!
ReplyDeleteIt was a chicken salad sandwich and might have come before the egg, or not. 😉
Deletelol...probably not. i love egg salad
DeleteTower Hill looks such lovely place to visit. I love the name of the cafe and your chicken sandwich and drink look fabulous! Belated Happy T Day, Chrisx
ReplyDeleteThank you for taking me to Tower Hill. What an amazing place. I love the sculptures especially that stone arch. I also like the cranes/cymbals.
ReplyDeleteThe living wall is so pretty. It makes me want to make one now. But such things wouldn't survive in our hot and dry climate.
Your chicken sandwich and hibiscus tea make my juices flow. Is it dinner time?
Sorry for the late comment. (Better late than never),
Hugs,
