  1. I love this reminder to re-visit Beth Chatto’s inspirational garden. She was not daunted by areas of her garden that us ‘mere mortals’ might consider challenging. Instead she saw them as planting opportunity and came up with creative solutions from which we can all benefit. Lovely article. Thank you Vija.
