However, as they are rescued from mud and insects, I can feel guiltless for picking flowers from the garden for once and just wallow in their sweet scent filling the room.

State of the Garden
An occasional journal of jottings about my wee (very, very tiny) patio garden in Edinburgh.
I do not pretend this garden is particularly special -I'm not a plants(wo)man and I go for colour. It's quite scruffy, slug-ridden and has all the faults of an enclosed urban plot, overshadowed by neighbours' trees, a microclimate harbouring pests but it brings me joy. If you have a similar garden I hope you will enjoy this blog.

Other People's Gardens
If you like my 'State of the Garden' blog, check out 'Other People's Gardens' . Since my own garden is so small, I have to get my kicks roaming around other people's gardens, stately homes, public gardens, wild spaces etc.
