Convolvulus Seedlings: Spring is my favourite time of year. Within a short period of time our garden literally explodes and becomes lush and colourful. These convolvulus seedlings have been raised in a seed tray and are awaiting their planting out

Tree Peonie: I am quite attached to this tree peonie as I raised it from seed which I collected from a plant that I saw each morning on my way to the tube. Branches of the plant were overhanging onto the pavement and for weeks I waited for the right moment for the seeds to pop so I could collect them. It then took another 5 years or so to flower. So quite a longterm project but well worth it I think

Tree Peonie: This tree peonie is the blousiest plant in the whole garden. The flowers are the size of a plate and are an incredibly bright pink
