Ednovean Farm has been slowly enjoying her spring edit for the year with a little tweak here and there; just as the season has woven its spell over the house and garden.
Garden diary
Hello Spring!
It’s time to say hello to spring and wave winter a not too sentimental goodbye. March brings the meteorological spring, which may be semi-detached from the spring equinox but it arrives first so I’ll take it!
Treasured memories of 2025
Treasured memories of sunny days, suffused with golden light, ready to be brought out and brushed down, just as another named winter storm scorches through. There should be a summer filter to cast over January shouldn’t there! Maybe that’s what holidays are for or time spent in quiet contemplation? Moments to store up happy memories […]
Three faces of winter
The three faces of winter have shown their spirit this January. This month we’ve travelled from soft snow feathering through the gardens, to the fierce Storm Goretti that battered the country. Yet as we cleared the storm debris from the garden, spring was quietly arriving, with fresh new shoots and deliciously warm sunshine.
Farewell September
Farewell September. Each day has been cherished in your company. It always seems to me that September always brings a special peace in the garden, yet there’s still the delicious echo of summertime underneath clear blue skies.
Our Mediterranean Summer
Will be be talking about our Mediterranean summer for years to come? I think that maybe we will. The summer that our garden was made for arrived in Cornwall without an airport queue in sight.
June – the dizzying dream of Midsummer
Mid summer has arrived, bringing endlessly long days, that stretch into the balmy night air.
Ednovean’s garden’s characteristic combination of formal topiary, sub tropical palms and grasses are now combined with wild flowers to herald the summer days.
What a spring we’ve had in Cornwall!
Throughout April and May, the glorious days of perfect blue skies have followed each other in a Mediterranean blur of loveliness. In fact it’s been one of the warmest sunniest springs for over a century.
A very Happy Easter to you
A very Happy Easter to you! Goodness – hardly feels any time at all since I wished you a Happy Christmas! The arrival of Easter so soon after Christmas, was something I always found puzzling as a child – although of course I coped with the Easter Eggs!
The dance of spring through the garden
The dance of spring is unfolding through the Ednovean Farm gardens these days. Anticipated for so long through the lengthening days, the eternal dance of the seasons, has brought the gardens back to life.
