We'll launch the first weekend in June in picturesque style with this photo I took last week in the Quarry Garden at
Winterthur Museum, near Wilmington, DE. This garden is one of many on the 1,000-acre estate planned by founder
Henry Francis DuPont (1880-1969), who preferred to enhance the setting -- in this case, a stream running through an abandoned quarry -- with wild flowers and plants to create a natural, informal woodland garden. Enjoy the primroses and primula!

Just gorgeous! Thank you and enjoy your weekend ladies :)
Oooh! Aaah! Oooh!
One of my favorite spots in one of my favorite gardens! Thanks for the memory!
Beautiful photo! I love Winterthur -- it is such a wonderful and bizarre place, with all the original period rooms reassembled inside the house. Great collections of china, silver, and textiles, too!
Winterthur is a special place, and such a beautiful one that it's almost impossible to take a bad photograph while exploring the gardens. Highly recommended to anyone in the Philadelphia/Wilmington area!
