Sculptures at De Tuinen.



Category: Holiday pics 2007. | Posted: Sat May 19, 2007 10:55 pm

As we all walked around the gardens at Appeltern we saw these wildlife sculptures. All were for sale but, sadly, were well beyond my means.

I think my favourite is the frog bird bath.









Here are a few more photographs from the gardens that I thought would be of interest to you all.





This seems like a great way to give the impression of more space in a garden. The wall with the mural certainly makes it appear as though the garden just goes on and on.

Pretty, perfect, pink waterlily.


Solomon's seal.



A gorgeous orange honeysuckle.

Wow some great photos among this collection Eils, I see Pic of the Month contender material :)

I really like the small flock of bird sculpture but it could prove to be a bit dangerous (sharp edges).

It really looks like a fantastic garden to visit. Thanks for the tour!

Great photos Eileen! Thanks for posting them all. I really love the way the vine covered walkway and mural look! The real frog is so cute as well as the frog birdbath.

Beautiful stuff, Eileen. Still the most noteworthy-the "free" frog and damselfly.
