Arboretum Kalmthout

Yesterday we visited the plants day in the arboretum of Kalmthout.

The kenderman got some tickets from a colleague member of the fern association.

one large Epimedium...

Besides trees, (espaliered) fruit trees and shrubs...

a wide variety of (wild)flowers and (forgotten) vegetables seed...

and lots of bulbs for sale...

Hex

On Sunday afternoon we went to Chateau Hex to visit the festival of rare plants.

If only you could have smelled this!

Lots of different cultivars garlic, shallots and onions... some of them smoked...

We bought some smoked shallots.... my apologies to Madame for taking a few photos
