Nymans Gardens Sussex

Nymans,  West Sussex, is an impressive garden developed by three generations of the Messel family, from the late 19th century, The garden reached a peak in the 1930s but in 1947 there was a fire in the house, which now survives as a garden ruin with the surviving rooms now open to the public. The quality and range of plants is phenomenal but not that of the statues etc! Testing 55-210mm on Sony Nex  - the two images chosen are of a Hoverfly and the Honey Bee that it mimics.
