Lunch at the Farmhouse at Roger's Gardens 12-01-17

Four friends met at Roger's Gardens in Newport Beach to gawk at all the lovely things on display and to have lunch at the Farmhouse restaurant.  What a great day it was.  Roger's Gardens has about everything anyone might need to decorate their home or garden.  The Christmas decorations are amazing - they feature the Radko glass tree ornaments, which have their own room.  There are dozens of decorated trees with fabulous themes.  I especially enjoyed the seaside tree with shells, mermaids, fish, etc.  But I don't do a tree anymore, so it was just looking not buying.  The nursery offerings are just amazing and very colorful no matter what time of year.  We had lunch at the Farmhouse - my choice was the salmon salad which was delicious.  I took pictures of the desserts because they were all so tempting.  It was a beautiful sunshiny day and the temperature was just right to dine outdoors.

The sign said "Our favorite winter flower" - cyclamen.

Cyclamen with a fringe.

These baskets are lovely - $39.99.

The frilly white flower in the basket above.  I was sorely tempted, but I have lost my green thumb and can hardly keep succulents alive. 
 
It was a lovely day.
