In The Garden With Lucy

One of the positives to have come out of the current situation is that those of us lucky enough to have a garden or access to a green space are really appreciating the benefits of a bit of "nature therapy". It has a very calming effect on me and makes me smile to see the flowers still blooming and the new shoots of Spring continuing to come through. In the garden with Lucy is inspired by some of the little gems that Mother Nature is sharing with us, with a little Christy magic along the way.​

I'm not bad at growing things and Heather our Senior Designer is brilliant at painting things, so together we are bringing you the best of what is blooming in my garden this week.

In The Garden With Lucy

This amazing chap is the Pasque flower, so named because it flowers around Easter, 'pasque' comes from the word 'paschal' meaning 'of Easter'. This year it was bang on time! Its stunning rich purple petals and bright yellow centre make it a joy to see, especially when bathed in the glorious sunshine we've been having. Heather has picked up on its exuberant colours and its beautiful feathery foliage.​​
