MGS AGM 2018 held in Alicante, Spain
« on: December 07, 2018, 09:44:43 AM »
On today's MGS Facebook page Alisdair has posted a photo of one of the courtyards in the Moorish-style Tea Garden near the town of Elche that we visited during the above event. Apart from bringing back pleasant memories this spurred me to look back over the photos I had taken during this trip. Below are photos of some of the other courtyards in the same establishment.
Cyprus Branch Head. Gardens in a field 40 m above sea level with reasonably fertile clay soil.

Very pretty and relaxing John but I think I might have difficulty getting up again if I chose to relax on the beautiful rug........especially after a few hours gardening.
