Kampuchea - the country of Lotus. Some of th4e most beautiful flowers grow in most difficult and most simple conditions. Some of the most beautiful souls grow in most difficult situations of life. While Kampuchea has a most troubles past for many decades, almost an entire century, the people have grown beautiful inside. Simple life - sometimes very poor life, but very humble and evolving like a beautiful lotus to a very beautiful soul.
In my newly created Blog topic on Kingdom of Cambodia, you find some more information on life in Kampuchea. In the photo gallery album Photos Kingdom of Cambodia, you'll find a growing number of beautiful nature and life sceneries from Kampuchea.

A catalpa flower (Catalpa sp, Bignoniaceae)
The poppy bloomed, but it was so heavy it broke the stem ... I had to prop it up to take photos :(

Filming the 10th anniversary show at Tatton Park has been a real treat for the team. Huge crowds turned up for the filming of our closing piece to camera featuring Joe Swift, Carol Klein and Rachel de Thame. It only took 18 takes for our esteemed talent to trip the light fantastic up Chris Beardsaw's garden and sample some '10th anniversary Tatton' cupcakes whic h were given out to all children under 15 who visited the show. Remember, kids go free! 'Have a go Joe' had a go at making a 'lunkie' also known as a 'smoot'. The crowds loved his attempt at thatching. He was offered a stick in the rural crafts marquee but as he quipped, he's hopefully not going to need that for sometime yet! Joe also went all artistic as he turned his hand to willow sculpting when he made two ears for a hare. Carol was at home in the floral marquee where of course she used to be an exhibitor. She was amazed by the high standard of the plants, in fact she's convinced that this year was the highest standard she's ever seen. Her highlights were the Hampshire carnivorous plants and Southfields nursery stands both of which won gold medals. Carol was also a bit partial to the perennials in the marquee which were fabulous this year due to the weather conditions having been particularly good in helping them get to peak performance at the right time. Rachel's enjoyed a blooming good time in the BFA marquee where eight of Britain's top florists competed for the title of 'Florist of the year'. She was on the sidelines as the competitors had to complete a surprise challenge, they had to create a floral masterpiece with a random selection of blooms, bits and bobs.
