The facade of a house should not be forgotten as it provides a unique opportunity to change the style of your home, by simply adding flowers.

Mixed borders are not only the core of what makes an intimate and informal cottage garden but they are also the easiest way to use roses within a garden.

On December 15th 1920 Ralph Vaughn Williams' classical piece 'The Lark Ascending' premiered for the first time in Shirehampton Public Hall. 100 years on it is being performed once more in the same venue.

Susan Williams-Ellis was the renowned designer and founder behind the iconic Portmeirion Pottery. Known for it's British style, many of the designs are inspired by nature with a number of pieces featuring roses including the English Rose Scarborough Fair.

First bred by David Austin over 30 years ago, this rose was named after the influential garden designer and horticulturist Gertrude Jekyll.
