I really like this painting by Cedric Morris. There is an interesting perspective about it. Someone I once helped with gardening had a flyer with this on her kitchen wall. Janet had known him and at some point worked in his garden at Benton End. It is one of my few regrets that I allowed myself to be lured away to a job I walked out of within a year. I do not think Janet is here anymore and her beautiful wildy garden may have been sterilised. Still, I have seeds that I scatter.
