Yesterday in the kitchen garden picking sweet peas Yesterday in the kitchen garden picking sweet peas and cleaning garlic. Heaven! …Flowers for cutting have been a welcome addition adding happy pops of colour. I recently planted out zinnias, sunflowers and calendula for colour in the next few weeks. As for the garlic clean up, it could take a while! 😅🌸🌿💛🥰 I hope you had a super weekend ☀️🌳🧄

Only the second year of the wild flower meadow, an Only the second year of the wild flower meadow, and there have been lots of wonderful surprise appearances. A few knapweeds, lots of spotted orchids, meadow buttercups, clover, oxeye daisies, and what I think was a fox and cub flower. This is probably my favourite area in the garden right now and nature made it all on her own 🌿🥰🙌

The kitchen garden in early July. Can you believe The kitchen garden in early July. Can you believe it’s already July. 🤯 I’ve begun thinking about a winter veg garden and hope to grow Brussel sprouts, winter cabbages, kale, and leeks. If you haven’t started any of these things off yet don’t worry you can still pick up plug plants at your local garden centre if you’re quick or order online from places like @rocket.gardens or @propagationplace 🪴 I’ll also be sowing parsnips and another round of carrots tomorrow too, in the hopes of a harvest around the ‘C’ word. Is there anything you like to sow now for harvesting throughout the winter months?

The first garlic harvest. 🧄🙌 These are Caulk The first garlic harvest. 🧄🙌 These are Caulk Wight planted in early November and harvested today. They are a hard neck variety so generally smaller than a soft neck with a more intense flavour. I also pulled up a couple of the Iberian Wight bulbs and goodness me they are huge, swipe to see. I’ll likely pull the rest at the weekend, once I have cleared space in the greenhouse. If you want to feel equal parts joy, satisfaction and peace, have a go at growing your own vegetables. There is nothing quite like it! 🥰🌿🧄

Tip • For the longest vase life, cut delphiniums when semi open, and refresh the water every couple of days. ☀️🌿

AD • I was thrilled when @visitscotland asked if AD • I was thrilled when @visitscotland asked if I’d like to visit the newly refurbished @burrellcollect museum. It was the perfect opportunity for a girls day out with my eldest Mia who shares my love for all things textiles, design and art. So we threw on our favourite dresses and spent the morning discovering the rather mind blowing collection, before stopping for lunch to sample the locally sourced delights of the Burrell restaurant. 🥂👌 There is so much to see and soak up we walked around again after we ate! 😁 

With over 9000 objects including exquisite tapestries, and world renowned sculpture and art (think Rodin, Cezanne & Degas) housed in a purpose built museum with an abundance of natural light. Here’s just a glimpse of what’s in store when you visit the Burrell Collection in Glasgow’s picturesque Pollock park. Did I mention entrance is free? 🤯🙌🖼👌
