How fantastic to read that the redevelopment of hi

How fantastic to read that the redevelopment of historic Borde Hill’s walled garden is about to begin! It’s a couple of years since I took these record-keeping photos of this magical space, and with @ann_mariepowell’s thoughtful and skilled vision, it’s now to become the most wonderful kitchen garden. @bordehillgarden have a forward-thinking ethos of keeping heritage varieties thriving, making their growing as sustainable and climate-friendly as they can, and providing a dining experience where there will be fruit and vegetables sourced directly from the garden and nearby farm surroundings. These are the ‘Before’ pictures… I just can’t wait to see how this ‘Secret Garden’ re-emerges in its authentic restoration!

Gratitude for the winter solstice, and the cycle a

Gratitude for the winter solstice, and the cycle and turning of the year, with these sunrise scenes from Beth Chatto’s Gardens this week. The return of the light, and of a new season of energy and growth, is such a hopeful thing. But right now, in this slumbering time of deep recuperation, the only job we need concentrate on is doing our best to rest. Reward yourself for the hard challenges you’ve met with this year by calming that nervous system of yours! We’re all tired, we’re deep into the darkness; rest.

A bit out of the ordinary that I should be somewhere taking photos at night! I had the privilege of a preview at the wonderful RHS Wisley Glow event. @alantitchmarshmbe and @wisemandebbie were there with a musical narration of Alan’s tale of Jack Frost: A Winter Story, brought to life with Debbie’s masterful music. It was truly special to have a live preview of the CD - of course, I took a few photos, including one beneath Wisley’s ever-maturing wisteria arch, currently bedecked in appropriately wisteria-coloured lights. You’ll hear some of the music as you follow the Glow route around the gardens, and it’s all rather magical and rainbow-coloured… Thank you @the_rhs for a very memorable evening! (PR invite)

Putting my hand up today as a lover of decay in the garden. The more I learn about the cycle of the year, the more I see it not so much as an end, but just the beginning. There’s an emotional grace about the bowing-out of the year, and beauty in these fading details. “The skeletons of the plants are for me as important as the flowers,” says @pietoudolf. “You accept death. You don’t take the plants out, because they still look good. And brown is also a colour.”

Thank you @latabla_blog for today’s inspiration!
