John Singer Sargent, Paris
On a recent trip to Paris, I found myself drawn back to John Singer Sargent. Not out of novelty, but out of familiarity — the kind that deepens rather than fades. Visiting the exhibition felt less like discovery and more like returning to a conversation already in progress.
Helleborus Orientalis
The hellebore has had something of a renaissance in recent years and is a wonderful cut flower stem, especially valued so early in the year.
Heritage & Speciality Narcissi
Narcissi are wonderful Spring flowers running from early March to May during which time the role they play and who they play it with, in vase or arrangement, differs significantly as the cast around them changes.
