I grew this from a cutting the year my son was born, that was 9 years ago and it’s now as tall as him. We always refer to it as the Henry bush. #itsthesmallthings #theplacewearehappy #gardenersworld

This is the railway line that runs through part of our farm, it closed in the early 1950s, I walk my dogs here most days and am always in awe of how nature will always prevail. This place is a haven for wildlife and I often see our resident Royal Stag here. I am blessed 😊

There's something serene about spending time in my garden. It's a chance to unplug from technology and be fully present in the natural world. Gardening for me is a form of meditation with only the task at hand occupying my otherwise spaghetti of a brain. Happy gardening weekend

My all time favourite, I can’t imagine my garden without them,the name "hydrangea" comes from the Greek words "hydor" meaning "water" and "angeion" meaning "vessel," I just love them. #gardening #garden #flowerphotography #JoyofLife #summer

Crowhurst yew is 4,000 years old, it's famous for the wooden door that was built into the tree in 1824. The bole of the tree was hollowed out and a cannonball was found,It's believed to have embedded in the tree after being fired by a cannon during the English Civil War in 1642
