Last week end I spent a large amount of time reading about garden designers,architects and famous gardens.
1)Woman are now very well placed in garden statistics.
There are
46% of woman in the National Society of Allotments and Leisure Gardeners.
2) I read with interest about the New York High Line Project.What a super attraction in this exciting city.
3) I never tire of reading new articles about Edward Lutyens association with the famous plant designer Gertrude Jekyll. Great Dixter is a must for those wanting to see the work of the great architect.
4)William Morris is somebody I am in the process of learning about.
The Red House @ Bexleyheath seems a place to visit.
5) Finally the use of horticulture as a therapy is now well known.
In think I have used my break from Garden Design in a very good way!
