The 'C' word - Christmas!


Now we’re into December there’s no avoiding it. Slade and Wizard are ringing out, repeatedly, and the Christmas lists are growing by the second. So as a respite from present hunting and festive hysteria we thought we’d start to put together a list of what we at Daisy! would like in our stocking. So here are the first 5 things we thought of, and we’re starting big!

1. A Garden Holiday.
To come clean, I’ve already got this one. Thanks to my fab Mum, we will be visiting the Gardens of Florence for a week in May, Hurrah! I’ll keep you fully posted on what we find. There are lots of operators and variations, from the Cotswolds to the Canaries, so have a browse and get busy with the hints! A great place to look for holidays is no.2

2. A year subscription to Gardens Illustrated Magazine. 
Year round fantastic information, stunning inspiration and seasonal joy. Yes your garden can look like that(ish)! 

3. Tickets for The RHS Chelsea Flower Show. 
Next year is centenary year so it’s bound to be a good one! 

4. Gardening Courses at Eden. 
From 1hr to 10 week courses, there is something for every level of commitment, and every purse, all based in the lovely surroundings of Eden. 

5. Meadow by Barney Wilczak. 
A stunning book full of beautiful photographs based on a year in the life of a protected meadow known as Clattinger Farm in Wiltshire.
