INSPIRATION

A spring garden is made in the autumn

No matter how big or small, few things are as full of hope, optimism and surprise as a garden. Ever changing with the seasons, a well-planned plot is constantly evolving; continuously offering up something to treasure in the moment, while also teeming with potential and possibility for what lies ahead.

Autumn gardening

Successional planting is the secret to a garden that never feels bare

By planting now, in autumn, you can set the stage for a seamless flow of colour and interest, from the earliest winter blooms right through to late spring.

Your spring garden

Lucy Willcox discusess her favourite spring combinations

Sometimes it's the tiny details that make for a brilliant planting scheme. In this subtle combination it's the colour of the bract in the Euphorbia × martini that picks up the purple tones of the Fritillaria persica perfectly.
