My garden has been a little haven for the last week whilst I was on holiday, it was wonderful to be able to sit back and watch the Red Arrows display en-route to the Bournemouth Airshow!! We had a day trip over to Guernsey and outside the restaurant there was an amazing display of grasses, all shapes and colours, and the movement when the breeze caught them was beautiful. I think this could be my next year’s project, and grasses are very hardy for our climate!

Emma’s away this week at a Plant Trade Show and soon she’s off to a nursery in Italy! This time of year is busy for our Buying Team, Carrie our Gift Buyer is taking her team off to the Speciality & Fine Food Fayre, hopefully bringing us back some yummy samples that will be stocked in some of the Garden Centres Food Areas. After that she’ll be off to The Autumn Gift Fair and both Carrie and Emma will be at Glee searching for new ideas for next years ranges, we’re all really looking forward to seeing what they come back with!!
