Sweet like heavenly love - divine nectar like divine human love - from the blossom of lotus flowers. If you wish to make flower essence out of lotus flowers at least a few drops of this sweet nectar needs to be used along the w ater based lotus essence.

Filming the 10th anniversary show at Tatton Park has been a real treat for the team. Huge crowds turned up for the filming of our closing piece to camera featuring Joe Swift, Carol Klein and Rachel de Thame. It only took 18 takes for our esteemed talent to trip the light fantastic up Chris Beardsaw's garden and sample some '10th anniversary Tatton' cupcakes which were given out to all children under 15 who visited the show. Remember, kids go free! 'Have a go Joe' had a go at making a 'lunkie' also known as a 'smoot'. The crowds loved his attempt at thatching. He was offered a stick in the rural crafts marquee but as he quipped, he's hopefully not going to need that for sometime yet! Joe also went all artistic as he turned his hand to willow sculpting when he made two ears for a hare. Carol was at home in the floral marquee where of course she used to be an exhibitor. She was amazed by the high standard of the plants, in fact she's convinced that this year was the highest standard she's ever seen. Her highlights were the Hampshire carnivorous plants and Southfields nursery stands both of which won gold medals. Carol was also a bit partial to the perennials in the marquee which were fabulous this year due to the weather conditions having been particularly good in helping them get to peak performance at the right time. Rachel's enjoyed a blooming good time in the BFA marquee where eight of Britain's top florists competed for the title of 'Florist of the year'. She was on the sidelines as the competitors had to complete a surprise challenge, they had to create a floral masterpiece with a random selection of blooms, bits and bobs.

A brief definition of water lily vs lotus flower.

When common language differs from scientific language, then I prefer common people's language.

Some of the lotus photos shown are well defined lotus flowers, while others may also be called water lilies by some, specially by scientists.

In the peopleŝmind and heart often all are lotus flowers. However there is a small difference. As a general rule those lotus flowers having seeds / fruits are quiet generally agreed to be lotus. Those without the seeds are often also called water lilies. From a spiritual point of view there is far less difference between the spiritual nature of both. Hence I may call water lilies also lotus.

The lotus bears fruits - nut like and delicious, but has far less nectar. In exchange for missing fruits the water lily has a daily high volume of sweetest nectar.

How confusing the naming policy of lotus / water lily is may be seen across the www and seen on examples such as image captions like "Lotus Flower In Lilly Pond" so what is it a lotus flower in lotus pond or a lily in lily pond ...

I love a and use to call both lotus!

But to satisfy both searches and both naming-"fans" - the one searching for lotus, meaning lotus and the one searching for lotus but meaning "water lily" I may name it for all searchers of this beautiful exotic and blossoming water plant.

A poppy is about to bloom.

Daffodils in late April
Hmm, I think a little flowerbed reshuffle is on the cards when I get home or possibly even flowerbed creation. I might have been suffering from the gard eners' affliction of my eyes being bigger than my garden. The car looked like a mobile greenhouse on the way back down the M6 but I bet we weren't the only car on the motorway adorned with foliage. Clematis x aromatica and C. flammula mysteriously found their way into my jute shopping bag, along with a really pretty Nepeta govaniana that I'll have to sneak into the back of a border. I find that yellow flowers divide gardeners in the same way as the variegated/non variegated debate but I can't resist yellow. I don't mind if it's a perfect sunshine yellow, wholesome and cheery or an acid greeny yellow, I'm quite happy with anything in between. The N. govaniana has delicate pale, lemony yellow flowers and is perfection in plant form. Lobelia tupa is a plant that I have been hankering after for a long time and now I am the proud owner of one. Carol Klein warned me about its hallucinogenic properties when she spied it my bag. Everyday's a school day at these shows... A tiny little blackcurrant sage completed my purchases, Salvia microphylla var. microphylla I couldn't resist its tiny little magenta pink flowers and scented foliage, I know that it'll thrive in my garden and it was a bargain, that's my excuse! tortoise_200x200.jpgOne item I would have loved to have brought home with me was this chap. My soon-to-be-husband and I have a little Russian tortoise called Claude so I am very fond of these slightly grumpy shelled creatures. Even though Claude has an uncanny habit of homing in and munching on any plant that I have struggled to grow or is very rare or special, I don't know how he does it! On second thoughts perhaps a stone version is a brilliant idea...
