I’d driven past this field first thing in the morning on my way to work, so it was a race to get back to it before the light had gone. Fortunately it was during that heavenly spell of warm sunshine last week and the conditions couldn’t have been better. Thankfully a lay-by was perfectly positioned […]
The nights are drawing in so quickly now that I barely manage to get home in daylight, it’s almost like a race to try and get indoors before the curtains of darkness close in! This was one night though that I didn’t batten down the hatches so hastily, I grabbed my camera and tried to […]
A very dear friend of mine, Liz and I set up Flourish & Green some 9 years ago in London, which we ran alongside our full time day jobs. We both loved working with flowers, which seemed to be quite natural to us, Liz being a very successful stylist and I working in garden […]

Gaynor is […]

A very inspiring day learning how to sharpen those Felco secateurs and putting new handles into spades and […]
I am so delighted to finally be able say that my website is now launched! It has been one of those things that you get terribly hung up and precious about how you want it to look and after 2.5 years I finally realised I just needed to get it out there! A good friend […]
An extraordinary display of Bee Orchids reside in a grassy bank belonging to a distant relative of mine in Suffolk, such a beautiful sight at this time of year.
These treasures are a combination taken from my garden and Patsy’s garden (my lovely neighbour). I have always been fond of Lily of the Valley and never managed to grow it anywhere.
