I have been busy this week taking my green thumbs to Milan for design week. We shot a little film which we’re busy finishing at the moment, but for now here’s a sneak preview…
A big thanks for Lancia and Urban for supporting my trip to Milan.
I love getting submissions from other keen gardeners and I was over the moon to get this video yesterday, the first pothole garden in the Netherlands! Great work guys




Hi, I really love your pothole gardening blog! However, I wish you would scale down your pix for the display size of the blog so they load faster. But that’s just a small nit, please keep it up, it’s a great blog for sure.
Sometimes nature imitates art! A picture by a photo-colleague of mine:

I love the second picture showing the little bench and the plant, it is really cute. I hope you have a fantastic time during the Milan design week and will be looking forward to the film you’re making.
I just saw your Milan video on Youtube, absolutely brilliant and beautiful work!
Hi – I just want to say how lucky I feel to have found your site. What you’re doing is so lovely and extraordinary. It’s too trite to say you’re taking lemons and making lemonade. You’re taking ugly potholes and making enchanting gardens out of them! The one above with the little bench has such grace. Thanks for making my day!
