I must find out what type of tree this is at the beginning of the driveway.
Update: the tree is a Camperdown Elm, Ulmus glabra 'Camperdownii'. I'm told "it came from a grocer in Victoria who was going to bulldoze it to make room for an expansion of his supermarket." Luckily his wife intervened and the tree was transplanted here in 1963.
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas.
Many lights are up. The lit tree trunks are pretty at night.
At this time of year you can zip along the paths because there are no crowds.
But soon the gardens will be full of people again. 'Christmas light-up' begins December 1st. Here is the this year's display in the gift shop corner window. In the background is the ice rink.
