What a truly inspirational garden with some wonderful structural plants. I love the drifts of planting giving a very unstructured look. You makes are, as ever, just gorgeous. Lavinia with her little bow is my favourite and those adornments on her dress - just perfect. You put me to shame with the amount of work you make Viv. Jayne x
