    About this ebook

    The simple beauty of a single flower has the power to fascinate, captivate and delight us. Its fragrance can intoxicate and it remains a wonderful gift to give or receive. The vast varieties of flowers that exist provide an exceptional burst of vivid and subtle shades of colours inspiring a smooth transition from petal to paper for so many of our greatest poets including Wordsworth, Tennyson, Burns, Swinburne and Coleridge.

      IN THE NIGHT GARDEN Midnight. A three-quarters moon. A gibbous moon, thinly veiled under a gossamer haze. Further south, on the horizon, cauliflower clouds drift eastwards to worry the Cotswolds – no threat to my nocturnal plan. It’s high summer, 18°

      Sir Edward Elgar’s music haunts the reeds, the bracken, willows, bluebells, birch and gorse of Malvern’s hills and Severn’s silted shore, the land where it was made and it belongs. And you as well may pluck tunes from the air: you only need to listen
