Award Winning Garden


Determined to make the most out of open house weekend, I was up early on Sunday morning (having missed out on Saturday) to make sure I got to see the award winning garden on the roof of 201 Bishopsgate.

 I'm still trying to fathom if this was some kind of joke.  "It's a wild garden" the security man informed me.  "No it's a bunch of dead weeds" I replied.  Although a grey foggy morning the view wasn't bad, so at least that gave us something to look at.

  1. I used to have a garden like that but I've spent years trying to change it. If only I'd known....

  2. I suppose it would look better in bloom . . . ?

  4. I wonder how it looks in early spring.

    The garden at the Museum of Nature here has Prairie grassland. That's what I'm reminded of.

  6. Weeds? It is simply a bit of nature. I was in New York City at the High Line and there are several stretches like this and they are dazzling.
