Summer Loving – a florist’s advice on using cut summer flowers

I’m really into growing flowers for the house now and as well as picking flowers from my garden (which I have to admit does cause me a bit of pain!), I’ve turned over an area of my allotment specifically to use as a cutting garden.    I thought it would be interesting to ask a […]

Under normal circumstances the plants would be the finishing touch, but this is a large space so we're phasing the work and planting wherever possible for now. Phase 2 planting will take place in late summer when the building work and all the landscaping is completed. #gardendesignsurrey #landscapedesign #plantingdesign #garden #landscaping
