I am a gardener and garden designer working in Central England since 2008. I specialise in the sympathetic renovation and restoration of gardens. Follow me as I chart progress in various gardens.
One of my hobbies includes Hermès silks, so expect my blog to be interspersed with the odd scarf or three. For me wearing a piece of silk art is the perfect antidote to a day's hard graft.
Oh, ravishing! These dahlias remind me so much of the Pluie d'Etincelles design - I have a corally pink one with lime and purple - and remind me that there are many good things occuring in autumn, as they cut well and brighten any room plonked simply into a jug.
You are so right about these dahlias being similar to the Pluie d'Etincelles design (which I sadly don't own). And yes to dahlias in the house although I find them best admired from a little distance, as the scent does not agree with me. This is still a good time for colour in the garden, long may it continue.
