Wildflowers & Selective Weeding
My favourite colours in the wildflower gallery remind me of my Grandmothers’ gardens. My maternal grandmother moved a lot when I was a child but she always took cuttings and plants with her. It didn’t matter what state the garden was when she moved into a house, my Nan would always have the garden looking amazing within a few weeks. Her top tip was ‘selective weeding’. She saw beauty in plants most of us would rip out. The result was gardens full and bursting with wildflowers: primroses, poppies, Michaelmas daisies, flux, cornflowers, the list goes on.

Happy Crocheting,
