Daily details from the garden to bring you inspiration throughout the year
Every gardener carries a notebook of some kind or another. The sensible ones write therein with a pencil – possibly a biro, but where’s the joy in writing with a biro? There are observations to record, ideas to jot down, memoires to be aided. A notebook can be bulky, but imagine my joy when I discovered a miniature Moleskine that would fit into the cargo pocket of my gardening jeans, together with a beautifully engineered miniature fountain pen. You can guess where this is going. I left my notebook in a client’s garden, retrieving it a week later after a period of determined rain. It dried out fine after a day on the radiator, the two pages where I’d recorded my notes in pencil still perfectly legible, the majority of my inkily penned thoughts little more than a ghostly blur.
