Just a quick note to say there won’t be a new Friday film this week, due to personal reasons. Thanks for your understanding, and I’ll see you soon.

Last year I was asked to be part of a secret project by Erin at @floretflowerfarm - the trailer just went live . . . . watch video on watch page

I thought that you might like to see how the bulbs from this video https://youtu.be/Kdk0mpc1GvM?si=UYRIg... have come out!
It is so wonderful being able to see them up close, all the tiny details x

Next week YouTube will be extending the possible length of shorts to 3 minutes - so I'm going to try recording some of behind the scenes life in The Studio.
What would you be most interested in seeing?

From this to this! On Friday I’ll be sharing about dyeing wool with gorse flowers - isn’t it an amazing colour!

There were storms here over the weekend - and lots of trees are down. One of the plum trees in the orchard was almost split in half. I snipped all the twigs that were about to blossom and put them in a jug - next to some windfall larch - on the kitchen table.
A bit of blossomy beauty (but no plums later in the year)

Oh my goodness - YouTube showed last Friday's video to SO many people over the weekend - and so many new people have subscribed to the channel.
It has been wonderful getting comments from people all over the world.
I have decided to do an introduction post this Friday - about my very wiggly career - so I have been going through the archives!
This is from Country Living Magazine from back when I had a cut flower field and a mobile flower van c. 2004 (published 2005), the photos are by Andrew Montgomery.

This week the iris reticulata that I planted as toppers to my pots of narcissi have begun to bloom.
This variety is called Katherine's Gold and I think it is a particularly lovely one to have in a pot high up as then you can see the delicate markings.
The pot is on my sitooterie table so I see it every time I go into the garden or down to the studio.
You can see me planting them in this video https://youtu.be/53EH_nU9pcg?si=92dQw...

The TIDY studio tour is now up - and just in case you can’t remember how bad it was …. Here are some photos from 1st December.

And I'm back! Tomorrow's film is going to be all about living with chronic illness, the things that I do to help me live a vibrant life and how they can help everyone's life, whether or not they are ill.
I filmed most of it during the terribly cold snap - sitting on this deck at the edge of the garden, looking out over the valley and getting a very numb bum.
