Extract from the Charleston Website:
When Vanessa Bell and Duncan Grant arrived at Charleston in 1916, the garden was filled with fruit trees and vegetables. It was redesigned in 1918 by the art critic Roger Fry, a close friend, who created the rectangular lawn, gravel paths and flowerbeds, which Bell and Grant filled with the flowers they loved to paint.
The garden often doubled as an auditorium, where Bell’s children and their friends would improvise plays, as well as being an outdoor exhibition space where Vanessa’s son Quentin installed many of his sculptures. Opened to the public in 1986, the garden has always been a place for excitement and discovery as well as quiet contemplation.

I knew this would be a goodie when you were filming. You saw so much more than I observed and beautifully filmed and put together.

Well captured Cynthia. You like your hollyhocks , don't you? But then they are very spectacular plants. Looked like beautiful gardens and the weather also looked warm.
