Daily details from the garden to bring you inspiration throughout the year
Winter strips away distractions and, while the skies might seem more vast and the landscape more open in the absence of abundant leaf cover, I find myself drawn to the small details. Of course, it helps that the frosty morning dews adds a sparkle and draws the eye, but I wonder how for the rest of the year I can walk by the flaked iron bark of the smoke bush Cotinus coggygria without pausing to wonder at its intricate flaking detail and the tiny patches of lichen making it their home. And while in summer I congratulate myself painting those parts of the border with that shade of purple, only now do I find time to drink in the shades of claret and plum chasing each other across a single leaf.
