Things to do this week in your garden- 3rd March 2024

Mindful Gardening and Floristry activities to calm your mind and soothe your soul

I fucking hate a blueprint or a generic planting plan.

There I’ve said it.

Every second post on my insta feed right now is an instagram gardener wanting to sell me their perfect planting plan, so I can copy it and have a garden that looks just like theirs. YUCK! No thanks.

My issue is this. What works for someone else doesn’t necessary work for you and not just in terms of the conditions your garden has to offer.

I believe that to truly have a garden you adore, that supports you through the toughest of times, it needs to truly reflect you and your personality and it cannot do that when you’ve copied someone else’s design.

That’s why I focus on teaching you the basics of border design, how to choose plants that make your heart sing AND how to trust in your own intuition throughout our time working together and beyond.

As a women growing up in the 80’s and 90’s we didn’t get many opportunities to trust in our own judgement, in fact it was positively discouraged, so that we would sit down, shut up and tow the line.

Well, here’s to making a lot more noise with my support, stating what you want and claiming it with both hands. And it starts in your garden.

With that in mind, I’m announcing something exciting this week. As part of my inner circle you’ll be the first to know, keep an eye out for Wednesday’s newsletter.

For the time being, upgrade to paid and make a start with this weeks mindful gardening activities.
