Last month we shared our first photograph by Karl Blossfeldt, whose work is going to be our art for garden lovers in 2022. He was a German photographer renowned for his close up plant photographs. He became famous almost overnight after the publication of his book in 1929. People went...

In this post we wanted to show you another of the amazing living walls we've found from around the world. In October we shared pictures of the Vertical Forest in Milan (two high rise apartment buildings covered in plants). This time we're looking at the Castello di Aglie, which is...

Our choice of modern flower painting for December is a picture by Scottish artist Anne Cotterill (1933-2010). It’s a good selection for this time of year, as it shows a jug full of Christmas roses. Helleborus niger, to give it its botanical name, are one of the few flowers to bloom...
