Gardens in Scotland you can visit, may of which are rarely open to the public. The best bit; every ticket bought, cuppa sipped and cake eaten goes to help charities and local communities. Last year, Scotland’s Garden Scheme supported over 225 charities and good causes👏
A great day out and a great way to gain inspiration and give to charity.

We’re loving these glow in the dark real echeverias👌 They’ve been treated with a harmless coat of luminous paint which means lights go off and they light up like a star! A fab, fun pressie for kiddiwinks that’s super simple to take care of. We think these would also make a great little night light for their bedroom too.
#echeveria#houseplants#edinburgh#linlithgow#southqueensferry#westlothian#fife#gardencentre#plantpeople
These beauties make such a statement in the home at this time of year and are a fab festive gift.
If it’s important to you to shop local, these are a particularly feel good purchase as they’re grown locally too by our friends at Pentland Plants😊

Real Christmas wreaths and planted containers bring such a festive feel to welcome visitors over the celebrations. We also have stems of berries and holly if you fancy making your own or simply want to embellish the pud!
And for a more personal welcome…sprigs of mistletoe💋🫢
