点评:We visited the enchanting Pashley Manor Gardens on 01/05, the first hottest day of the season with a staggering 29o celcius in the afternoon, "unseasonal" to say the very least for that time of the year in England.
We were incredibly lucky be able to enjoy the stunning display of Tulips still at their prime !
Their annual Tulip Festival features more than 40,000 tulips every Spring.
Located on the border of Sussex & Kent, Pashley Manor Gardens features 11 acres of beautiful borders and vistas – the culmination of a lifetime of passion for gardening, an appetite for beauty and an admiration of the tradition of the English Country garden by the Sellick Family who purchased the property in 1981.
With the help of the eminent landscape architect, the late Anthony Du Gard Pasley, their labour of love was rewarded with the "Garden of the Year Award" in 1999.
The Gardens provide the perfect setting for sculpture. Each year the work of many eminent sculptors is displayed as well as work by local artists.
The gardens are a haven for wildlife – bees, butterflies and small birds as well as moor hens, ducks and a black swan.
On the summer like day we visited the beautiful Pashley Manor Gardens, the sweet & delicious scent of the most magnificent & spectacular Wisteria in bloom I have ever seen was everywhere around the Manor.
With such a warm & sunny rather "unseasonal" Spring in England this year, I wasn't expecting to still find Bluebells on May 1st and yet the peaceful & refreshing woodland valley garden with its little stream known as the Bluebell Walk was carpeted with cheerful & delicate blue flowers that were a real joy to see !
翻译:1月5日,我们参观了风景如画的帕什利庄园花园。那天是本季最热的第一天,下午气温高达惊人的29摄氏度,对于英格兰一年中的这个时候来说,这至少可以说是“不合时宜”的。
我们非常幸运,能够欣赏到盛开的郁金香!
每年春天,这里都会举办一年一度的郁金香节,展出超过4万株郁金香。
帕什利庄园花园位于苏塞克斯郡和肯特郡的边界,占地11英亩,拥有美丽的边界和景观——塞利克家族于1981年购入了这处房产,倾注了他们毕生对园艺的热爱、对美的追求以及对英国乡村花园传统的崇敬。
在著名景观设计师已故安东尼·杜·加德·帕斯利的帮助下,他们的辛勤劳动于1999年荣获“年度花园奖”。
花园为雕塑提供了完美的环境。每年,这里都会展出众多杰出雕塑家和当地艺术家的作品。
花园是野生动物的天堂——蜜蜂、蝴蝶、小型鸟类,以及沼泽鸡、鸭子和黑天鹅。
在如夏日般美好的一天,我们参观了美丽的帕什利庄园花园。庄园里处处弥漫着我所见过的最绚丽、最壮观的紫藤花的芬芳。
今年英格兰的春天阳光明媚,温暖宜人,与往常“反常”,我没想到5月1日还能看到风铃草。然而,宁静清爽的林间山谷花园,以及一条被称为风铃草步道的小溪,铺满了欢快精致的蓝色花朵,真是赏心悦目!
