String gardens

Suspensions seem to be the new theme for the next few post. I am planning and plotting for my next guest, a new 'bunting' project, and I have to say the 'String Gardens' are inspiring me further in my madness.

Whats on the garden path today

This was on the garden path today, a perfect, tiny, windfall. Magic.

Onion Carriers

A sleepless night led to these little people carrying away Grant's onions, I cut out the arms so they could get a better grip.

James May's Plasticine Garden

The gardeners are upset, but this gardener and artist loves the anarchic art event that is James May's Chelsea garden. I can't wait for Chelsea to open so I can get a good look at its garish wonder of two and a half tonnes of plasticine. I love the way it has been a creative endeavour with artists, children and viewers of James May's toy programme requested to contribute.

Mid-winter Gardening with the Hens

Gordon and the Hens were out this weekend gardening, the hens were right in there, charging around after Gordon, diving under his hands. The hens however have different ideas about gardening to us as they were busy harvesting the lovely big earth worms. Gordon was gathering the last buried treasure of last years produce, wonderful colour on a dreek February day.
