Clematis cirrhosa var. purpurascens ‘Freckles’ seed heads decorating a deciduous tree in the gorgeous Winter Garden in #osterleypark . What a delight!! Plus you get beautiful red speckled flowers from November to Jan/ Feb. Great climber!White Chaenomeles equally charming as the pinks and reds. I find the crisp white blooms so fresh & uplifting at this time of year & I’ve planted one to train against a sunny fence in my back garden. Here in #osterleypark it’s been grown as a tangly shrub, and I think it looks great whether left to its own devices or as a trained climber. Gorgeous plant! #chaenomeles #winterblooms #londongardens #japanesequinceSoaking up the heavenly scent of this Winter- flowering honeysuckle (Lonicera fragrantissima) at #osterlypark in West London. The Winter garden is a complete delight. #winterscents #wintergarden #londongardens #honeysuckle #winterhoneysuckle #loniceraLove a bit of rose pruning. Did some rejuvenating snipping last year (swipe right to see) & delighted with all the new growth. Can’t wait to see how it flowers in summer. #londongardens #roses #rosepruning #highgate@nigel.dunnett planting at the Barbican still looking great in January. Might join @outinthegreen for a tad of weeding with @lauraarison later in the week, although it looks pretty pukka to me as it is!Cyclamen coum. Gently starting to bulk up. Delightfully delicate & so welcome in January. #winterblooms #highgate #londongardensOlder posts

Just looking for pattern ideas for 2 hedges in my front yard. I am an amateur hedge artist.

Just wondering what kind of camera and lens you use for your beautiful photos?
Hi Bev, I use a Nikon D300 and a 18-70 f3.5-4.5 zoom. I think both body and lens are no longer available as I’ve had this equipment for some years, but I have my eye on a D700 (which you can also shoot video on) and need to research which lenses are currently out there. V.best Naomi
