Hi everyone!
I'm still sifting through the photos I took on my walk through the gardens at Gut Heidefeld. This is part two. Since it's October not many flowers were left. I did spot a few bright spots along my leisurely walk and, of course, there are a large amount of evergreen plants to admire as well. Apart from the numerous trees, plants and shrubs, there were various ground-covering plants that were highly interesting. The groundskeeper thoughtfully stuck little signs next to most of the plants, so my walk was visually stimulating as well as educational.
"The protector"
All of the sculptures amongst the plants, hidden in nooks and other surprising places are by local sculptor Wilhelm Bollwerk (1936 - 2022).
The Orangerie (conservatory) pictured above was built to provide shelter for the numerous potted plants during the winter months.
Fuchsias defying the chilly weather!
The above sculpture had me smiling. It depicts a choirmaster on the right hand side and the choir on the left.
Another resting place amongst the shrubs and plants. Note the chili plant in the bottom corner. This will probably be moved into the Victorian style conservatory shortly.
I think that's enough pictures for today :)
Thank you for visiting my blog and have a wonderful day.

What a beautiful garden. There's just so much to see there.
Love the choir and choirmaster! Yesterday when I was out and about, I saw the most gorgeous young/small mountain ash (rowan) tree -- its leaves turned from green to orangey-yellow and absolutely LOADED with red berries!
Sounds beautiful. I hope you took a picture!
Das ist so schön diese grünen Rehe und all die wunderschön Blumen und der Chor ist wirklich witzig gestaltet , auch die Beschützende gefällt mir sehr gut , herrlich der Wintergarten. Ich habe mich sehr gefreut, dass du dir die Mühe gemacht hast das hier zuteilen den schönen Besuch dort!
Hab einen schönen Sonntag und eine gute neue Woche!

Ach Duni, wie schön. Es gibt auf deinen Bildern so viel zu entdecken. Gleich angefangen mit den Grashirschen. Einfach niedlich. Auch die Skulpturen gefallen mir zwischen den Pflanzen sehr gut. Liebesperlenstrauch und Fuchsien, alles blüht noch. Und als Highlight die blühenden Nerinen. Ein Genuss. Liebe Grüße Anette
Dear Duni, what a magnificent garden!!! Beautiful, lush colours and everything looks so alive! I also love the topiairies!
Danke Anette, ich habe den Namen der letzteren schon vergessen gehabt. Ein Glück, dass Du Dich so gut mit Pflanzen und Blumensorten auskennst!
