Jalan2 lagi! (4th fieldtrip)

Kali ini kami jalan-jalan ke taman privat lagi. Rumahnya salah satu pemilik Old Westbury Garden. Letaknya tidak jauh dari OWG karena hampir satu area di Old Westbury ini punyanya keluarga ini..(Kaya parah). Take a look of the photos
One of the formal garden ( taman ini sebenarnya dirancang simetris, tapi pilihan tanaman di kiri kanannya beda tahu kenapa? karena yang satu full sun, yang satu lagi shady. Nice consideration..
Bath house (Chinese style). At first time I was curios why Phips family has a lot chinese thing, also ini Old Westbury Mansion. And I got the answer from my boss. She said in the era of phips family life (late 18th- early 19th, the trading with china had just bgun. So to show you are the rich people, you need to have a lot of thing from china. Kinda different right now, rite!
Sundial everywhere (the time it was showed almost exact)
the pool and ranch at far
main house (almost the same style with OWG)
they have a lot of trees collection on their garden
Japanese Garden: What essential element of japanese garden: I guess, stone, water, and short weeping tree...
The ranch: Get a horse..and yiha...
This stone remind me of Norman K. Booth book. I dont know why. May be theres a lot of this kind of stone there
hidrangea walk
fern walk
group on azalea walk ( they group the plant, so you can see it like go to botanical garden and enjoy and learn an abundances cultivar that they collected
