I've written about this garden a few times over the years so apologies if I am repeating myself. It's a lovely place and a firm favourite. We just visited the garden this time. By the time we'd had lunch - soup and a roll as it was quite a cool day - the rain had stopped. The garden looked wonderfully green with a strong earthy aroma in the air and mist still hung over the mountains in the distance. As we walked the sun was filtering through the clouds.

Plas Brondanw was the home of architect Clough Williams-Ellis best known for his Italianate village of Portmeirion which is just a few miles away.
I'll let the photos show you what it is like - small but beautiful and completely at home in its wilder surroundings.
I'm usually happier with flowers in softer colours - pinks, whites and lavenders - but I'm really liking the combination of the orange and blue. I've seen it in a few places recently.
