Daily details from the garden to bring you inspiration throughout the year
There’s a subtlety to the way that Mother Nature plants that eludes the human gardener, so far from the grids and patterns of our planting plans. Even those that take a stab at emulating the kind of multi-layered complexity that occurs spontaneously within the flora of a natural ecosystem only manage to achieve greatly simplified impression. A long look at the floor of the woodland edge provides an education – dog’s mercury, bluebells, cleavers, bound together with ivy all settled into a deep layer of leaf-mould and accessorised with twigs and fallen hazel catkins, home to a city of invertebrates. Could we ever emulate this detail? We can try.
