Founded by English gardener John Tebbs, The Garden Edit redraws the traditional boundaries associated with shopping and the garden by bringing together a modern collection of products that embody functionality, timelessness and beauty.
What an amazing gardening-video, published by "Nowness, for the culturally curious"... Enjoy.
The Zurich Succulent Plant Collection is one of the most impressive of its kind, covering more than 4750sqm and displaying over 6500 plants. We visited the collection and brought our good old 35mm camera.

The £1.3m study is being conducted over three years; Bristol, Leeds, Edinburgh and Reading universities are getting involved, to study the differences in pollinator biodiversity between urban and rural areas.
The easiest way to study pollination in urban environments is of course to plant flowers, so each city now has a new flower meadow. Whether you're interested in the results of the study or not, this can only be a good thing, as British flower meadows have been in decline for centuries.
Data has been collected since May and will continue until the last of the flowers have finished blooming. It is hoped that the ideal conditions for creating urban habitats for pollinators will be discovered, while creating areas of natural beauty in the process.
