It’s CMA-
Okay it took a while to get everything uploaded but here it is:
(This is regarding my trip to a local botanic garden)
https://imgur.com/a/hkSkK9F
This is just some of the Shakespeare garden- I cannot emphasize enough how huge this place is with so many different plants; this is probably a football field of plants for this section alone, but the entire estate is many acres, it’s absurd.
(Off the top of my head, they’ve got a huge conservatory, Japanese, Chinese, Australian, native plant, children’s, ranch-style, South African, and many more gardens, most of which are much, much larger than the one I saw)
Unfortunately the conservatory was closed but I’m going on a tour of it later this year so I’ll send pics then too if you’d like greenhouse inspo. They have a vanilla orchid there that’s hundreds of feet long and very, very old.
This place used to be a person’s estate which is fucking insane. It’s also an art and library historical preservation thingy. They have multiple themed art museums and libraries on the estate. It’s really cool but also weird to think that this used to all belong to one person.
The statues were all titled in their Roman forms btw, idk if that was like an artistic choice or something they preferred or symbolic for the time period or what, but I found that interesting.
No statues of Aphrodite/Venus unfortunately, but there was one of Diana, who I feel like would be clover’s hero lol.
Also it was very sunny and crowded, so if there’s people in the pics or the lighting is off, sorry about that.
There’s also a tea room (fun fact the property has a Japanese and an English tea room. They also put on regency events and stuff that are very hard to get a ticket to) but that’s not open to the public most of the time (neither are the libraries without special permission, which sucks).
There are a lot of benches and stuff so I kept thinking of clover’s reading area or Ben’s art area in there that would be really cool.
Anyway it was super pretty because it’s spring here and everything was blooming. So we’re the Japanese cherry blossoms, but they’re quite far from where I was and it was super hot and crowded, so I’m saving that for next time.
It’s unbelievably gorgeous, but I think the inner socialist within me has a lot of mixed feelings on these sorts of private or semi-private collections in modern days lol, and the fact that I’m so annoyed about it probably means I need to eat, so brb and enjoy I guess, lol.
CMA MY LOVE!
Omg I cannot thank you enough for this, it is such a wonderful inspo! ❤️ Like, I'm so going to use these to get inspiration for the next chapters and aaaaaa-
IT IS GORGEOUS! I need to visit this place😍
I WOULD ABSOLUTELY LOVE GREENHOUSE INSPO OMG YES, PLEASE YES?! ❤️❤️
There are a lot of benches and stuff so I kept thinking of clover’s reading area or Ben’s art area in there that would be really cool.
I am screaming here, you're so amazing! ❤️ It means so much to me to hear this🥰
Diana would totally be Clover's favorite 🥰
I can't stop looking at these beautiful pictures! 😍 I am totally hypnotized! ❤️❤️❤️
