The cascade at Alnwick Gardens from the top looking down to the new Visitor Centre.Last Wednesday, we travelled South to visit relatives in Cambridgeshire, and on the way we stopped off at the Alnwick Gardens. We had been before, but in the Summer when the gardens were very busy. This time they were very quiet, and it was good to get uninterrupted views of the Cascade.
Looking up the cascade to the arches at the top.
Hellebores and Snowdrops.
At this time of year, there isn't an awful lot in flower in the gardens, but there was a great show of hellebores, and spring bulbs - still some snowdrops, and bright patches of crocus and the miniature blue iris.
Miniature irises (Iris reticulata)

That's one thing that I love about Hellebores, they sprout early in the season. Take a look at Heronswood Nursery, they have a huge variety of Hellebores.
Thanks for the comment. I enjoyed looking at the Heronswood Nursery Hellebores.
