Christmas Fare at Harborough Nurseries

A few weeks ago I had a table at the annual Christmas Fare at Harborough Nurseries. The Thorn, Guestling Green, Hastings, East Sussex.

A great weekend was had by all with lots to see and buy. Vintage clothing, art, homewares, food and items for the home and garden.  

Here are some of the items that I had on sale.  I use found, recycled, new and repurposed materials to make planters, auricula theatres and much more for the home and garden.    All items are available on the "Shop" page of my website.  www.baverstockgardens.com

Local free delivery.

Angel's Trumpets

Angel's Trumpets or Brugmansia adds drama and fragrance to the summer garden.  Fast growers, easy to propagate and have fragrant tropical blooms for several weeks at a time.  Typically overwintered in a greenhouse this plant can be hardy here on the South Coast if given the right protection.

Part of the nightshade plant family, these plants are considered toxic so be cautious if using around children and pets.

This container suits a contemporary or traditional setting. The bold foliage of the Phormium 'Maori Queen' and Euchevera provide interest and texture for a low maintenance high impact display.

Summer Container Number One

This container is for a shady spot

In this antique cast iron urn Ive combined variegated double pink impatiens, pilea and a hot house parlour palm to create a long lasting display of colour and texture.

If you have a greenhouse this arrangement can easily be moved inside for a winter display.
