Seattle to bushart gardens






All small farms needs at a glance - water or a pond, some wild shrubs and trees like a little private jungle and a few fruit trees and flowers directly surrounding the farm house.
The small wilderness is the life and health insurance to keep all family healthy and strong. The life force of wild plants, trees, shrubs and jungle is like a radio-station radiating its aura into the neighborhood and all family living inside the powerful nature aura. Thus the immune system from all people and animals living inside such beautiful wild nature is day by day recharged and repaired / healed as needed to keep all healthy.

This year's Tatton soundtrack might have to include: It only happens when it rains, raindrops keep falling on my head, singing in the rain... I could go on, so please let me know if you have any less clichéd suggestions. But, there's no getting away from it, the weather for the build up has been truly appalling. It's been a challenge for the show organisers, garden designers, nursery folk and TV crews alike. High-vis jacket-wearing was extended the full duration of press day yesterday as conditions got muddier.

agrostis_nebulosa_and_astrantia.jpgBut against such odds, they have all delivered a fantastic flower show, sunshine bright with colour. And somehow, against the wet, slate-coloured skies, the plants of high summer seem all the more vibrant. From show gardens to nursery stands, the stars of the show are easily gem-like crocosmias in a glorious range of orange shades from tangerine to gold; flat heads of raspberry ripple achilleas are also stand out performers.

But my favourite plant combination today was the gorgeously delicate Agrostis nebulosa with Astrantia 'Roma' - a fuzzy cloud of bronze grass with jewel-like blooms just peeping through, unfazed by the downpours, raindrops glistening prettily as the sun re-emerged.
