The Second Labour of Hercules - slaying the Hydra

In the foreground there is a pure white magnolia. Magnolias have been fantastic this year, so far no late frosts to discolour the buds and flowers. Behind Hercules there is a magnificent hedge of cloud cut yew - always a pleasure to see at Powis Castle..

The yew looks like gigantic moss covering rocks! I'd never have identified it.
