ART OF THE FLOWER AND GARDEN
23 September to 31 October 2021
THE WILD SIDE
Turn over a stone, check the compost, something is bound to crawl out. Be careful – it might bite! Nature needs pruning, the weeds are running riot, everything is flowering at once and the birds and insects are having a ball.
