  • We’re invited to the Chelsea Flower Show in London and are bringing you along! It’s the world’s most prestigious garden show. With hundreds of garden designs and floral displays -- we always come away with new ideas and inspiration. Even more extraordinary is that none of the garden displays previously existed and the designers have only two weeks to put them together!
    It’s also a good time to reflect on some of the decisions we’ve made with our own gardens and the lessons learned from trial and error. Remember those daffodils we planted in the Dower House orchard? When they finally bloomed -- we were in for a big surprise!

Whatever it is best wishes for continued success. ❤️❤️

    So I heard the reason you want to have like additional flowers by your fruit trees is that they tend to have higher nectar content later in the day, so to keep the bee around you want to plant other types of flowers. I read allium is a good companion plant. I tried planting these, then my apple tree died. :-(

    Can't wait to find out what the big news will be. My optimistic guess is portico-related: the historic monuments protetction authority (or what ever they are called) have finally realised what an amazing job you are doing and have provided you with an enormous grant to realise all the work you want to do! 🙂

    I love that you guys keep the gardens simple like your designs inside. Having a lot of the same flower makes such a huge impact. I bought my house last year and this year I’m finally getting to my garden. Thankfully my aunt is an expert because I have no idea what I’m doing and I have no patience so I want everything to look pretty and full immediately! 😂😂

      Definitely! I mean if it was me for the first year I would plant a lot of cosmos which you can get a packet of seeds for £3 and you will get hundreds of plants with lots of flowers that you can pick the whole summer and slowly be planning for next year! But you have your aunt so she can definitely help!
