HYACINTH HEAVEN at home today 🌸

I challenge you not to devour this book from The Land Gardeners in one sitting! A stunner of a book celebrating producing and gathering cut flowers in aridiculously romantic and beautiful English Garden. I especially love these ladies because they champion the importance of soil and compost and are forging the way forward in rescuing our depleted soils. #gardeningheroes #singingfromthesamesongsheet @thelandgardeners #cutflowers @flowersfromthefarm #gardenorganic #englishgarden #roses #tulips #dahlias #cuttinggarden

Had such a great day of inspiration and learning with @jasoningram at @wildegoosenursery yesterday and all thanks to @gardenmasterclass. If you haven’t been to Wilde Goose yet it’s SO worth it. A fresh colour palette of all the faves and some super creative planting. More pics in my story (not quite Jason’s standard .... yet) 💚🌸💚 #gardenphotography #plantnurseries #plantingdesign #ludlow #flowers #gardendesign #tv_living_nm2

So beautiful in the meadow tonight. After 5 years of doing absolutely nothing to it suddenly the wild flowers have taken hold. Squeals of delight from me to find 2 orchids .... big patches of grass are dying back and being filled with vetch, white campion, ox- eye daisy, red and white clovers, at least 3 types of trefoil and much more. I spent ages debating whether to introduce yellow rattle or sheep in the autumn or one of the other million meadow creating methods ..... in-fact I spent so long trying to decide that in the meantime nature has just done her thing! 🍀 P.S @veryan66 I think this is what you were looking for? #meadow #wildflowers #wilding #rewilding #flowerphotography #dandelion #twilight

The view from the White to the Blue garden at The Newt. The new hotel by Babylonstoren owner. Garden needs a bit of settling in but already some beautiful planting in the established borders and stunning stone work. Already well worth a visit and fun stocking up in their new farm shop and home shop curated by lovely Silvana formerly from Foodie Bugle. #thenewt#babylonstoren #apples #englishapples #gardenlove #gardenlover #loveplants #whitegarden #plottoplate

Thinking back a week to dreamy times @surfmaroc and it’s living walls and ridiculous numbers of succulents and 🌵 Not quote as green as England right now but very green in its own way 💚 #surfmaroc #livingwall #ferns #airplants #loveplants #taghazout #morocco

Such a fun day at Chelsea. Even with the crowds it never disappoints. It felt like there were fewer gardens than usual but a few really stood out. I loved the romance of The Donkey Sanctuary (in pic) the green walls around the Japanese Garden, the clever colour palate of the garden with the rusty digger bucket that I can’t remember the name of... Andy Sturgeons garden stole the show without doubt. The charred wood sculptures made it. The Yorkshire garden was more like an incredibly detailed bit of set design rather than a garden but still beautiful. Luckily my phone ran out of battery before I could take too many pics in the Grand Pavillion but I do have long lists of plants that are now on my wish list ✨💫

Tulipa ‘Triumphator’ and Narcissi ‘Thalia’ doing their thing this evening ✨ I love pale pretty flowers in spring because what I’m really soaking up is the incredible green everywhere 💚Then the blues and purples come in for end of May/June before late summer when suddenly everything is out, the dahlias start and ‘good taste’ and ‘refined palettes’ go out the window! 🌈 #narcissi #tulipa #gardencolour #gardenlove #spring #green

Hyacinthoides mauritanica flowering in the alpine house at Wisley back in late December. So pretty. It’s a dwarf bluebell from Morocco but is fully hardy in the UK climate. It just prefers full sun and very well drained soil so I’m thinking one to plant as an autumn bulb in the gravel garden maybe? 💙💙💙 #hyacinthoidesmauritanica #asparagaceae #autumnbulb #bulb #bluebell #moroccanflowers #alpines #gravelgarden #naturalisticplanting #droughttolerant #droughttolerantlandscape #slowforalstyle
