The last days of Summer in the Old English walled Garden at Elvaston Castle near Derby.

I hope you enjoy my little video of the last days of Summer in the Old English Garden at Elvaston Castle, Derbyshire.
Watch full screen at 720p for best view. I filmed this handheld no tripod quite happy with the results.

I have been to Elvaston Castle many times since the 1980s yet never been in the Old English Walled Garden until this time. I don't know how I've managed to miss such a gem.
As you can see we are getting near the end of summer now so some of the flowers have seen there best moments but there is still plently to look at.
Elvaston Castle is near Derby, Derbyshire, UK :

By the way The bird song is as-is, I've not added it to the soundtrack! Not quite such what bird it was, I'm sure someone will know.

Anyone care to say names of all the flowers are in my video with the times. I recognise...

0:47 Chinese Lantern Plant
2:07 Alyssum.
