The Last Garden

The sun set at 17.06, that Friday, as I crossed O’Connell Bridge towards Tara Street station. It clutched us feebly still, my iris and me, but it knew us for its own.

The Mines- Robotanists deployed into the mines will gain favour based on how prevalent the colour of gem they are retrieving is within the garden. After searching visuals of English gardens, I discovered several beautiful photos which added ambiance to reading this wonderful book! Well, I play one on the internet. I give people advice and post artfully cropped photographs. And it’s not as if I’m faking. I really do know how to overwinter dahlias, how to establish a fig tree or whatever. It’s just that I’m lapsed now, no longer practising. as a gardener myself, I was fascinated by the descriptions fictional garden designer, Venetia Smith gave to the various garden "rooms" she planned for Highbury House;The petals of Iris reticulata are delicate but intensely coloured, rising from a deep indigo at the base to a shimmering cobalt, to a truly miraculous blue. On its sepals, to tempt pollinators, are lavish streaks of saffron yellow. They're extraordinarily brilliant, these markings, like stigmata inflicted by the sunlight itself. the title somewhat confuses me! Why "Last Garden"? " Lost" Garden may have been more suitable; and, Emma’s work was definitely cut out here, but it was so exciting for her to be able to recreate these famous gardens.

Armistice Day: A Collection of Remembrance - Spark Interest and Educate Children about Historical Moments I loved this! I would recommend it to those liking historical fiction, resourceful women, and a bit of intricacy. The sophisticated writing drew me in and I’d like to read more by this author. I liked these five women. I liked their honesty, their thoughts, their hearts, and their creations amongst the positions each were in. Each era had a love story, and I was captivated by how much love and loss of all kinds wove through the tale, and was mirrored through the garden. There was also hope and possibility, along with loss and things long gone.I didn’t get around to planting that rose, not right away. I dug the hole, though. When you’re planting a rose, you want a hole about twice the size of the root ball. It’s a good idea to dust it with fertiliser. Fish, blood and bone, ideally. Again, gardening is mainly about death. The one thing that marred my enjoyment somewhat was the myriad characters. It was difficult at times to follow when the narrative jumped from storyline to storyline just who was being discussed. Some chapter headings helpfully stated the year, but all of them did not. The writing was such that I was immersed in the book, and it was a tad jarring when I was lifted from one story to another.
