"The love of gardening is a seed once sown never dies" – Gertrude Jekyll
I’ve been considering writing this now for years and honestly I haven’t said half of what I could but I do think we need to protect vulnerable people more before we push them into a career in Horticulture, and I say that with a heavy heart.
To bring back my writing mojo I’m going to look at a few inspiring plants and here’s the first.
