Last week I visited the gorgeous Cotswolds lavender fields near Broadway. The heady scent of lavender on warm summers day… Not everyone’s cuppa tea, but it is for me! The mixture of wild flowers too is perfect, along with the lovely views of the English countryside. As you wander through the field, if you stop and… Continue reading Lavender in the Cotswolds 💜
At the weekend I took two of the children and hubby to see a field full of gorgeous delphiniums. They grow the delphiniums for confetti and the field is only open for one week per year. It really is a lovely sight to behold. The children loved running through the flowers and hiding from us… Continue reading A field of Delphiniums

We… Continue reading Hidcote Gardens 🌿

Flowers, especially peonies and roses. Hot buttered crusty toast with honey. Friendly, smiley people. Sunsets. Pastel colours. Anything… Continue reading Love & Hate ❤️
Just a little blog post today. I’m loving the fact that I can get free flowers from our garden and make a little posy to show off in our home. In this posy I’ve used French lavender, Aquilegias, a Welsh poppy, Carnations, marguerite daisies and some greenery. Thank you for taking a look … Continue reading Posy of garden flowers💐
