Spring gardens are around the corner...

With the grey skies of January upon us it’s good to see some ‘cheer' in the air from my garden designer colleagues. Ann-Marie Powell has designed a colourful garden for the RHS ‘Greening Grey Britain’ initiative and Dairmuid Gavin has created a design based on the musings of Heath Robinson with the British Eccentrics Garden for Harrods. I love working with both clients and have a great working relationship with them. Looking forward to Chelsea 2016 to see the gardens come to fruition…

Christmas 2015

This has been an interesting year. A move to South Wales and wondering if business can still be done from a far off location, adopting a cat (now named Cauliflower) and living in the quiet of the countryside. Overall it's not worked out too badly with most clients happy to work by phone or email! A few may have fallen by the wayside and a few new ones will not know any different. Wales has it's own charms, some shops still close for lunch and others take a half day on Wednesdays... rather like 1960's England! Still, maybe we should all be a little more laid-back!

It only remains for me to wish you all a Happy Christmas and even better, a prosperous New Year!

Here's to 2016...
