The royal family is looking forward to better days.
In a new post on the royal family’s official Instagram account on Saturday, The Firm shared stunning photos of the Buckingham Palace garden, along with a message of hope in honor of the first day of spring.
The gallery’s post included four beautiful nature photos taken by photographer John Campbell in the garden of Buckingham Palace. The main image is of a golden, dreamy sunrise over the lake in Buckingham Palace Garden and is followed by three more photos highlighting the beauty of the Queen’s garden: a daffodil, a field of daffodils with pheasant eyes in the meadows of the garden, and a curved path that leads to the Palace’s Rose Garden.
“Today marks the first official day of spring, as we all look to better days ahead,” says the caption for the post. “The garden at The Queen’s London residence undergoes many changes over the course of a year. Despite its urban location, the garden is home to a remarkable variety of flora and fauna.”
The photos featured in the Instagram post will be included in the next book, Buckingham Palace: a royal garden, which follows a year in the life of the royal garden at Buckingham Palace.
The book, which includes gardening tips from Buckingham Palace chief gardener Mark Lane, as well as royal anecdotes, is due to be published by the Royal Collection Trust in April. “The tastes and abilities of monarchs and gardeners over the centuries have helped to shape this hidden oasis in central London,” explains the Trust’s official description of the book. “Today, the garden plays a key role in the eventful calendar of real events, including the much-loved tradition of the Queen’s Garden Party. See how this garden grows and develops as the seasons change, accommodating a wide variety of wildlife , flora and fauna, from the National Amoreiras Collection to the royal hives. “
