What a contrast from winter to summer; the seasons certainly bring about change here in England. This view of the formal garden at The Manor Hosue, Stevington is a total contrast!
Garden chatter, edible flowers, cooking and inside tales about our garden events.
About Me
- Kathy Brown
- I am a garden designer and author; I have a love of gardens whether in town, village or countryside! Even City coutyards hold a special interest, especially with their historic associations. I also have a particular interest in conceptual gardening which in my case come into the "garden art" category with many paintings transformed into growing borders here at The Manor House Stevington. I am also very keen on edible flowers and eat my garden flowers from my borders as well as orchard fruits and vegetables. I like to share them with others too when groups visits.
