Hy Time

Now is a great time to buy Hydrangeas as you can see exactly what you're getting as most are in full flower. My favourites are H. Limelight with it's creamy green ram's head shaped flowers and H. Annabelle ladened with it's oversized snowballs. Best to plant in drifts for maximum effect and leave the dried flowerheads on for winter interest.

Green Scene

P43

It's hard to beat the calming effect created by the all green garden. This small garden was developed one year ago within a large already mature garden and is settling nicely. The Irish limestone paving frames the grass beautifully and the strong lines are echoed in the Buxus pads and clipped Pyracantha backdrop.

Snow time

It's amazing how something so disruptive can be so beautiful. The snow came thick and fast today and the courtyard has never looked so magical. Formality is open through to Christmas Eve for all your last minute decorations and gifts.

Let the show begin

After a few gruelling days setting up shop at Bloom we finally got there. The sun shone all day for opening and the crowds came thick and fast from the minute the gates opened at 11.00am. The shop proved to be hugely popular with garden signs, gardeners' aprons, solar lights and of course sun hats all being the order of the day.

There was fantastic interest in the HSP garden buildings from the smallest tool store to the largest model on show The Chelsea Summerhouse. The quality of the finish, the great colour options and the lead roof seemed to tick all the boxes.

It's going to be a very long "long weekend" but hopefully the sun will continue to shine and we'll get to welcome you to the stand.
