Plant of the Day
Friday 10 June 2022
Great for a woodland garden or shady border is Convallaria majalis var. rosea (rosy lily of the valley). This spreading perennial with rhizomes has very fragrant, bell-shaped, pale pink flowers on arching stems just above the foliage.

As previously mentioned, I went to the Chelsea Flower Show last week. It is a very intense experience as there is so much to see but it is also so crowded, so many visitors as well as film crews. Every year, there are one or two plants that feature in a lot of the show gardens. This year, it was the turn of Thalictrum ‘Black Stockings’, this pink flower with dark grey stems. I thought it would go well with some of the moody purples in my garden and rushed to look it up on line. Often a new plant to me turns out to be unsuitable because it needs acid soil (mine is alkaline) or wet ground, mine is dry. Thalictrum was a different sort of disappointment though as the plant is normally 2m high. Somehow at Chelsea, all the plants were only 60cm or so. It’s wonderful show, but not always very accurate in its representation of plants!

Out at seven - home at nine
#6WS #SIXWORDSATURDAY A very early start to Saturday heading off to Chelsea Flower Show. Arrived at eight in the morning and it was the best time to be there. By eleven it was so busy with a sea of people all vying for the best views of the gardens. Had a fabulous day with my daughter and we managed around fourteen thousand steps, I was almost crawling on the way back to the car park just…

We're back! After a couple of weeks off social media to focus on our current garden design projects, we're eager to share what we've been up to! We've been busy designing some truly stunning outdoor spaces, some small, some enormous! We've also been working on something behind the scenes that we've hinted at previously... In the meantime, enjoy this small, traditional garden that we've designed recently. Three distinct zones divide this garden into a patio/dining area, large lawn and comfortable seating area, and make the space feel bigger than it really is. Mixes of purples, blues and whites from salvias, geum, hardy geranium and phlox will provide colour throughout most of the year! Let us know in the comments what you'd like to see more of! 🌿 #theyorkshirecountrygardener #gardendesign #gardenideas #gardentransformation #theyorkshirecountrygardener #gardeninspiration #gardening #gardenfurniture #landscapedesign #landscapegardening #pleachedtrees #boxballs #loveyourgarden #yourgardenmadeperfect #yourhomemadeperfect #rhschelsea #chelseainbloom #chelseaflowershow https://www.instagram.com/p/CeqiHVSriIy/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Spring is here and so is my Garden Appreciation post. Thanks to my low-grade IG obsession with @hotpatooties, I was Lucky (oh the puns) enough to be able to work with her RHS #ChelseaFlowerShow gold medal winning sister @plantyjane on really put some gorgeous finishing touches on our garden. It’s not “completely finished” but I suppose a garden never is. Always growing, just like us. Thanks SO much Jane, and remember to pop by if you’re ever in Norf London 😉 (Also, special thanks to @soup2nuts for that awning!)

Briza maxima. Greater quaking grass is a member of the Poaceae Family, but it belongs to the Subfamily Pooideae. No joke. Pooideae. 😂💩 It is perennial. I bought a tiny pot of it at Chelsea Flower Show about five years ago. It didn't exactly thrive in pots, but that's still where it is for now until I sow these seeds and am sure I have enough to spread around the garden. #brizamaxima #greaterquakinggrass #greatquakinggrass #poaceaefamily #pooideae #ornamentalgrasses #perennialgrasses #rattlesnakegrass #blowflygrass #shellgrass #chelseaflowershow #sowitandgrowit #gardensofinstagram #gardenstaketimeandlove (at La Macchina Fissa) https://www.instagram.com/p/CeQYY9qoFhh/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I will going to the Chelsea Flower Show on Tuesday. Can’t wait! Apart from being a wonderful day, it’s a great reminder to do the Chelsea Chop on late flowering summer perennials. These plants that flower in August and September, benefit from their foliage being reduced by a third in May. This makes them more bushy, less leggy, when they come to flower. I have sedums and asters who greatly benefit from this treatment. 20 years ago, before I knew what I was doing in the garden, I chucked out a sedum plant because it flopped everywhere - it had just needed a Chelsea chop, not putting in the bin. Here’s a picture of a sedum before and after it’s haircut.

We love curves! Adding curves into your garden creates a comforting and relaxing emotional response and helps to soften the harsh lines of the house or boundary. By wrapping flower beds, paths or grassed areas around seating or dining areas, the sense of space can be exaggerated and the feeling of seclusion increased. #theyorkshirecountrygardener #gardenideas #gardeninspiration #gardentransformation #landscapearchitecture #landscapedesign #landscapegardening #lawncare #pergola #gardenarch #loveyourgarden #yourgardenmadeperfect #yourhomemadeperfect #chelseaflowershow #rhschelsea https://www.instagram.com/p/CdntZ-cq9qn/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Chelsea boots outfits are a popular style among male fashion enthusiasts. They're versatile and stylish enough for any occasion, but they also have a certain edge that sets them apart from other types of footwear. They can look formal or casual depending on the outfit you choose to pair them with, and they go great with everything from jeans to tailored suits.
