    Apart from the Carludovica,  I have all of those plants in my tiny back garden or in the shade house.  Usually I look at plant photos and feel very deprived but today I realise maybe I am more fortunate that many others. Different perspectives I suppose.

    Thank you for the reality check

    You're welcome, dear Peachy😀

    The gardeners are doing a good job and working hard.

    And lots of students come during the week. Yesterday, there were only six people there while we were there 😀

    I will give the gardens a gift of all my plants to help the botanically deprived Swiss. All I ask for is a free visit to Dignitas,  I won't even expect a return trip plane ticket !

    Thank you very much, Harry.

    Yes, it was really nice. A lot of effort goes into it, and the advantage is that there are sometimes few people there. You can enjoy the whole place to yourself. There is also a small canteen with chairs where you can sit down and eat something—you have to bring your own food, but there is a coffee and drinks machine with small snacks.
