Summer days are here again - sipping G&T on the terrace, lounging in our pools and holidays in the Algarve!? You must be kidding, for Head Gardeners Lucy and Saul it's full-on gardening, as our plots and patches reach the zenith of there horticultural output. This is the season when we really see the results of all those labours over the previous 6 months - colour, texture, scent and flavour all reach their crescendo as the garden provides us with the visual and edible treats that we work so hard for. Enjoy theses long days and wallow in the best gardening has to offer.
Late summer and Early Autumn is the zenith of the late summer garden, and especially so when your garden comprises the more exotic and tropical foliage that Saul loves so much. So on a solo mission, he takes you for a stroll through the gingers in his life, plus a few other plant cameos that are looking particularly good at this time of year - all while dodging the rain showers - never be told that Saul (and most head gardeners) aren't out in their plots in all weathers!
