Kew Gardens in May
I only briefly visited Kew Gardens yesterday morning, this time to see the Azalea Garden and the Order Beds (to get some ideas for our own garden). Unfortunately, while the azaleas were still looking good, some blossoms had begun to fade and they looked as if they won't last too much longer.
It may be May now, but it could almost be a month later; this is like summer already. The weather has been warm and very dry recently, and you can see the effects.
