The Queen Shares Stunning Photos of Buckingham Palace Garden to Welcome Spring

The Queen has delighted fans by sharing stunning photos of the garden of her official residence in London to welcome the new spring.

On Saturday, Her Majesty took to the Royal Family's official Twitter page to share pictures of the Buckingham Palace garden to mark the first day of spring this year.

One of the photos showed the sunrise over a lake in the Palace Gardens, with the caption reading, “Sunrise over the lake in the Buckingham Palace Garden.

Today marks the first official day of spring as we all look towards brighter days ahead.”

The garden at the Queen's London residence sees much change over the course of a year.

Despite its urban location, the garden is home to a remarkable array of flora and fauna.

The post also included images of the pretty flowers found in the garden, with the caption adding, “A tatsia daffodil boasts eleven flowers on a single stem.

Pheasants' eye daffodils stand tall in the garden meadows.

A curved path leads to the rose garden.”

These images will feature in Buckingham Palace, a Royal Garden, due to be published at Royal Collection Trust in April.

The Palace shared a further three pictures with more signs of spring.

One of the images shows a tatsita daffodil which has eleven flowers on a single stem.

Another is of pheasants' eye daffodils in the garden meadows.

A final photo is of a curved path leading to the rose garden.

The photos, taken by photographer John Campbell, are set to feature in Buckingham Palace, a Royal Garden, to be published by the Royal Collection, the largest private art collection in the world of Queen Elizabeth, next month.

The post prompted a delighted reaction from Royal fans, with many expressing their love for the beautiful flowers and nature.

One fan commented on Twitter, “Wow!

Beautiful, peaceful nature.

😍🌺🌈” while another simply wrote, “Keep the pics coming.

Love flowers.”

A third fan said, “Lovely flowers.

They remind me of the flowers that surround my childhood home in Greenwood, Mississippi, at 504 Poplar Street.

Daffodils were pretty much the only flowers we had in our yard.

Oh, the memories!”

The Queen, who turns 95 next month, has spent much of the last year at Windsor Castle due to the pandemic with her husband Prince Philip, who turns 100 in June, and a reduced household staff dubbed HMS Bubble.

The monarch traditionally hosts three garden parties at Buckingham Palace every summer, and from July to October, the palace is open to the public.

However, the stunning photos shared at Buckingham Palace confirmed Friday that this year's Her Majesty's Traditional Birthday Parade, also known as Trooping of the Colour, has been cancelled.

The palace's statement said, “Following consultation with government and other relevant parties, it has been agreed that the Queen's official birthday parade, also known as Trooping of the Colour, will not go ahead this year in its traditional form in central London.

Options for an alternative parade in the Quadrangle at Windsor Castle are being considered.”
