Botanical Garden Oasis

Botanical gardens are always a delight to visit and the garden upstream from the main house (Sutton on Rogue ranch) is like a private botanical garden, so peaceful, with seasonal colors in flowers and trees. A lovely expanse of flat green grass carpet that is perfect for parties and seeing the occasional wedding or two.

So quiet and peaceful, a lovely place to sit and read or be alone with your thoughts, and a smile on your face. The only noise being the riffle sounds from the Rogue River, and maybe a few birds. On Sunday there was the additional noise of 4 deer scurrying away as I walked though the garden and drank in its beauty and peace.

This bench is set back from the river, at the back of the garden, but is just a perfect place to sit. The azalea bushes are about to bloom, you can see those rosy blossom heads showing behind the bench, but probably the dogwood's magical white butterfly-like flowers will be gone by then.

A lovely secret special spot, I'm sure you'll agree.
