Yes, more Muckross! Note the strange plants in the first and last pics. These appeared at other places we visited around the Ring of Kerry. I don't know if they are 'native' or just happily spread on their own. The distance picture shows just the end of the enormous glasshouse. There is a smaller walled garden by it, but it seemed to be in between tulips and whatever comes next, so I don't think I took a picture.

By the way, everything I've shown so far, other than the fourth pic below falls within another vast wall that encircles the property. Go outside that and one discovers a vast woodland system. We did not venture very far because we thought we might get lost!
