Learnt a lot about how to say your lines in between the sounds of overhead aircraft and random chainsaws whilst trying not to hit the microphone and manage to talk inside my bee suit!
Needless to say we made it through scorching sun from early morning to late evening with only one of us getting stung ( my lovely trainer Richard Wilson who was so matter of fact about the incident none of us realised)!
I lifted my first frame out of the hives and saw my very first queen bee which was amazing!

This is my first ever show garden and I'm really excited that we have been accepted at Hampton Court Palace Flower Show. I'm designing a show garden called 'A Beekeeper's Garden' with my colleague Jonathan Denby.

Mike Vickers and Richard Stamp from J.A.Jones are my main contractors. I know they will deliver the goods. They both have previous show experience and are used to interpreting my garden and landscape designs and planting plans. This design will be no exception.

Jonathan has found us an inspirational sketch of the most beautiful Victorian apiary and we are pulling all the stops out to really do it justice. His joiner, another Richard, has risen to the task and so we have our team!

There will be some nail biting moments in the next few weeks, particularly when I visit the nursery to see which perennial flowers have the potential to look stunning for the week of the show. I'll need to think on my feet to substitute any that don't get through.

I know the garden will take on a life of its own when the plants are in, nothing can control nature and that's what makes my job so exciting. I might design a scheme but nature will have its own input and create its own beauty.
