Today's post is way too long .............but I hope that you will enjoy scrolling quickly through to explore Ednovean farm and gardens from every corner in the snow this morning and some of the lovely vistas revealed from there, etched in white.
................. The first is taken from across the lawn towards the Italian Garden
and the view through the garden gate to St Micheal's Mount
Mounts bay blanketed in snow
a garden pot an cacti.............not sure if the cacti will survive though!
Perranuthnoe across the fields
with the lovely old church tower framed by the Cordylines
the village again across our front field as the light improved
Perranuthnoe church against the sea
a small allee of Cordylines
the long shadows of the morning across the lawn
The Italian garden the shelter of the hedges are providing welcome shelter for the birds
or maybe three..............
and now back to the main terrace in front of the Blue Room and the Garden room
From the entrance gate across the car park to the house
a view across the roof towards the village church of Perranuthnoe

I'm not noted for my discipline in selecting the shots - ones good twos better................!
or maybe three..............
definitely five!
Let's go in for a minute - the discus thrower
one of my favourite sheltered corners tucked behind the Italian Garden
A viewing seat in the Italian Garden
The little sheltered sundial garden below the Apricot room
and from the steps in the shelter belt to the left of the Apricot room terrace - Perranuthnoe framed by the garden

Looking back to the house from across the garden
and now back to the main terrace in front of the Blue Room and the Garden room
Back into the courtyard in front of the house
Looking across the parterre to a sheltered courtyard where guests like to sit in the summer
the central plaque that we laboriously carried back form our holiday one year!
and now
From the entrance gate across the car park to the house
a view across the roof towards the village church of Perranuthnoe
Looking back out in to the lane from our car park - fingers crossed for our Date palms please
The side of the house
and through the entrance gate to the front door - Ian Lowe our garden designer positioned the hedge so that the Parterre and Second set of Date palms wouldn't be revealed until guest had walked a little further
A pot positioned to make a short vista from the front door across the courtyard
Charles only went as far as the muck heap!
A view across mounts Bay from the top of the farm - to see the horse please visit my other blog Dani's blog

Pleased you're all OK up there, Ednovean Farm looking stunning as always. Like you we've done our best to help the less hardy plants, but I think this may be too much for some of them. .sue
ReplyDeleteNo I don't think the garden is doing too well Sue - something told me not to replant with too many succulents last year though. The Agaves will do to -5 but the date palms are looking very sad after last nights big freeze that froze the gate catch! Hope your garden is ok too. Christine
