Coming around a curve of the wilderness trail, suddenly you are startled by the sight of this beautifully manicured garden within a garden.

The colours are spectacular, as is the view toward the sea.

Clearly demonstrated is a deep love of and knowledge about the beautiful hydrangea.

This intriguing specimen has two colours on each flower cluster.

I have never in my life seen a hydrangea of this colour

Photos can't do the job -- it has to be seen to be believed.

This is one of those places, like the Faerie Glen, that I think must have been stolen from heaven.

My next difficult day, I will picture me here, on this bench, in a riot of colour, looking out toward the sea.
