Are men more inclined to be plants-people? Collectors? Yes, I think so. Lady gardeners often create cottage gardens and are therefore romantics too, but are we as daring and adventurous as the men? I remembered an artist friend of mine. Her paintings are abstract in design and difficult to understand but very beautiful in strong and exciting colours. Yet, her garden is precise and neat, strictly obeying the colour rules. Does that mean all her urgent creative needs are drained by her wonderful paintings? What do you think?

I could go on and on but my photos are extra intensive in graphics [please be patient, go and get a cup of tea!!] , I may continue this theme in a couple of weeks. The reason the photos take longer to download this time is that I lost all my tools trying to adjust to a new computer. The little man who lives inside my computer has been extra vile to me this month! It would do him good to go out into the garden and smell Spring's early roses

First, here is a look at the Rhododendrons flowering in the country garden "Kibbenjelok". Please be patient and if you have any questions use the discussion area to ask me questions

I am hunting high and low for Scottish garden links and anything that sounds hopeful is under construction or doesn't work! Here are a few -

This is the National Trust for Scotland's page, exploring the best of Scotland's Heritage. Lots of links, well worth exploring before you arrange your Scottish Garden Tour

The Internet Guide to Scotland. Well set up page with books, accomodation, places to stay, visit,gardens, Scotland's grand beauty even electronic postcards

Photos from one of my favourite Scottish garden, Inverewe and a little of the history of this fascinating garden. None of these links do the garden justice the Rhododendrons are wonderful and the photos don't show them

Here's a place I would be tempted to put my head down in. this is a classical Scottish garden on the Banks of the River Tweed known for its terraced gardens and dating back to the 1600's
