It’s always interesting to find out what’s shaped a garden - personal taste, visits to other plots or, as in the case of Charingworth Court, a holiday.

I’ve been out to this Cotswold garden ahead of its open days for the National Garden Scheme and discovered a touch of Japan.

Surviving despite the wind. It's so good to see blossom on the old apple tree. It's getting rather elderly now.

I'm not sure it's going to be a bumper crop this year but anything is welcome and the flowers are beautiful.

I can't decide if this is very early or extremely late!

Broccoli 'Summer Purple' grown from seed last year just grew leaves. I left it in the bed in autumn and it's finally started to produce spears.

We've got frost forecast for next weekend so I will have to pick them soon.
