Winter doesn’t have to mean dull borders and empty flowerbeds. With the right plants, your garden can stay colourful, textured, and lively right through the cold season. In fact, winter is one of my favourite times to notice the details we overlook in summer—berries glowing on bare stems, evergreen foliage catching frost, and blooms that bravely flower in the cold.

I’m delighted to share that Millie’s Garden Design & Floristry will be taking part in the Isham Winter Fair on Saturday 22nd November, held at Isham Village Hall. It’s one of my favourite festive events of the year – full of Christmas cheer, local makers, gifts, crafts, and a wonderful community atmosphere.

In today’s fast-paced world, we all crave moments of stillness—places where we can breathe deeply, reflect quietly, and feel more connected to something beyond the everyday. For many, the garden is that sanctuary. But with thoughtful design, a garden can become more than beautiful; it can become spiritual.
