First, an apology for the spelling mistake on the label for today. I only noticed when it was far too late!
The greenhouses in the kitchen garden at Kingston Lacy were, and still are, used for propagating a large number of plants. As you would expect, I’ve taken a lot of inspiration for the colourways in the calendar from the various plants and flowers in the extensive gardens. I needed more neutral colours, so I started looking in more unusual places.
This colourway was chosen not from the beautiful flowers on display, but from the pots they grow in and the bench they sit on.
