When it comes to gardening… old really is gold 🌹
The basics don’t change. If anything, the best knowledge is the stuff that’s been passed down, tried, tested, and trusted over generations.
This morning I braved a UK car boot sale in 0°C (yes, really 🥶). Once I got over the shock of voluntarily walking around in that cold, I struck gold…
A 50p bargain 📚
I picked up The Rose Expert by Dr D G Hessayon – an absolute classic.
Proof that the weather doesn’t stop people flogging their stuff… and it doesn’t stop gardeners hunting for wisdom either 😄
There’s something really comforting about these old-school gardening books – no trends, no fluff, just solid advice that still works decades later.
Honestly, one of my favourite finds in a long time 🌿
Tell me your most recent car boot bargain!
