December Small Space Garden Tour: Gorgeous Flowers, Foliage, Festive Feel & Surprise Winter Visitor 

Our warmest welcome to all, at the start of the coldest season. We hope you enjoy a tour of the early winter highlights in our small English garden, with an unexpected queen bumblebee visitor. Despite the dormant trees and shrubs, with their inner energy suspended in time, the December garden still feels productive and alive. Wishing everyone in the festive season joyful times and nature-soothed minds.
