| Article about the sale of the late actress' home and garden. Worth a look for the pictures of the grounds (and her massive white climber). |

| It was worth looking at. It's a shame that she was so unhappy. |

| Love the wisteria on the house! |

| What a beautiful house! I would live there very happily. I just do not like most of today's houses. "Open floor plan" and "modern" simply do not appeal to me. Folly |

| 'It was in her garden that she found her happiest moments and relaxation from many tensions. No matter how late she went to bed, she was up at six o'clock in the morning planting or replanting shrubs, flowers, and plants.' Sound familiar to anyone? :) |

| Ann, you find the most interesting "nonrose" connections to roses! Rosefolly, I'm in agreement. I wonder when the house was built. Look at those old wood floors and leaded windows! Hoov, yes, it does. Garden therapy. Never underestimate the power. Carol |

| Ann, Carol is right. Your links are always worth following. What a beautiful house in a jewel of a setting. Sigh. |

| Garden therapy is the best therapy! I guess my concept of "heaven" or "afterlife" would include a setting like this! "Ancient Bluebell Wood" makes me want to pack a picnic and dream of fairies under the shady trees.... Yum. Susan |

| If I win the lottery I know what I'm buying. A bluebell wood is something I dream about. Diane |
