stone leaf (and green leaves)

I made a wonderful discovery in Duke Gardens today (for yes, it stopped raining for long enough to go and wander round it) - that's the new - at least I think it's fairly new - which, as it explains, is a kind of community garden - community education, food awareness, community feeding.  And it's beautifully designed, too, as these inset stones indicate.

This tells you about it;

This and the picture below give you a sense of its most formal part, with some benches and tables, and then some very covetable raised beds;

and then there's a simply wonderful wildflower meadow part.  I'm so much looking forward to seeing what this looks like at different seasons: it's a real treat to have it within walking distance.
