Every summer in recent years the gardening team at Kedleston Hall have sown wildflowers seeds in the formal bedding areas of the grounds. I'm not sure what the original owners of the hall would have thought but I think they're lovely.
In past years the beds have been filled with
poppies and Queen Anne's lace, or
California poppies, but corn marigolds are the stars, filling the centre of the beds with California poppies, lunaria and other flowers at the edges.
The bees and beetles certainly seem happy with this year's choice.
The lion just remains aloof.
