The AUTHOR'S LIMITED EDITION of Garden Gathered is now available (for posting in Australia as fast as Aus Post will allow).
Garden Gathered is a collection of floral designs and seasonal musings by farmer-florist, Helen Leighton at Riverdale Farm, on the south coast of Western Australia.
Printed in Australia, the book is a seasonal portfolio of Helen’s garden-gathered approach to floristry as well as her nostalgic-inspired styling for shared tables and vignettes in the home. Throughout the pages you’ll find billowy masses of garden roses spilling from antique french urns or fluffy dahlias alongside elegant foxgloves styled with old books or garden wares. A detailed list of botanical ingredients accompanies each dreamy ensemble.
A seasonal garden journal provides an insight into life as a flower farmer and Helen also weaves in design notes, tips for growing and designing with Australian natives. Articles on beekeeping, blacksmithing and growing wine give you an idea of the way of life that she has created with husband Jim at Riverdale.
