Pollinating Dumfries and Galloway

Alex Rigg performing, also the Director and costumier of Oceanallover's 'Pollen' in Craigieburns Gardens, near Moffat. Photo by Shelagh Neil.

Enthralling, mesmerizing,a performance of  international standard - some of the comments from audience members after the performances first  at Craigieburn Gardens, privately owned, (but they also have a plant nursery you can visit. ) These intimate gardens, enclosed by woodlands, was followed by the formal terraces of Drumlanrig and the 19th Landscaping of Castle Kennedy around a  lily pond with a backdrop of rhododenrum and azaleas so that meant  a different space and feel to each day.

Laini Chrismas. Flower costume by Alex Rigg, of Oceanallover's 'Pollen' performance

Above photo, technically challenged, taken by me, nevertheless suggests something of the fragile essence of a flower, performed by Laini Chrismas as part of Oceanallover's 'Pollen', part of the Spring Fling Festival, 2013.

The photo below is of me behind scenes. Scary or what? No false modesty.  Well, it is my blog.

Not so fragile flower, me, Stephanie Green.
