The rain on the day we went to Chatsworth was very gentle, like a thick mist that left the flowers bedewed but not battered. (There were some very sad looking peonies, though. They're gorgeous things, but this is not a good part of the world for them.)

This is a detail of one of the delphiniums in the kitchen garden.

Mmm, my father and stepmum used to live in Buxton, and a visit to them tended to include a visit to the Chatsworth gardens (tho' the time I was there with baby, I was just holidaying with friends. And baby. Who is now eighteen and off doing Camp America before university. Eek!).
