Exmoor gardens

I absolutely loved a recent visit to Greencombe Garden near Porlock in Somerset, where I'm working on an art project. The late spring sunshine shone on the freshest green foliage, and the garden's famed woodland plantings were luminous against the mossy paths.

Soon after arriving I was lucky enough to meet the garden's creator and owner of 50 years, Joan Loraine. Now confined to a mobility scooter she remains closely involved, she was en route to finding more space for some more of the garden's fern collection. We discussed the mystery of pollination of erythroniums, and I met her American family helping out in the Garden.

BUT I do have an absolute horror for this kind of garden signage:

I know that with a serious collection such as this you DO need to offer accurate information to visitors but this totally overshadows those exquisite blooms!
