Hey 👋 it’s been a minute! Apologies for the absence. My lack of presence on here is because - Winter - but also because this early part of 2026 has been a pretty busy time full of newness as I’ve been settling into a new place and a new pattern.
At the end of January I began a new role as Garden Manager caring for St Mary’s Pleasance Garden, a wonderful historic walled garden that’s open to the public. It’s a pretty special place with an equally special community of plants, creatures and humans in and around it and I’m loving getting to know them all 💚
I’m so grateful to all those who’ve made me welcome, shared knowledge, shown support and come for a visit. I’m so excited for the year ahead….
Hope you enjoy these little snaps from my first 10 weeks working in the garden. If you’d like to see more, I’ve been sharing updates to , do follow along if you’re interested 🙏 And Phew - it’s Spring! Happy Easter 🐣 🌸💚💕

Chapter 3: Endgame

A final 2025 fling of flowery memories and good garden moments from the end of Summer, into a super golden Autumn and wettest Winter.
Another highlight (which I have no decent pics of) was the amazing Talking Plants conference - where so many talented and inspiring folk gathered to share ideas and practice.
With just a couple of weeks left, my apprenticeship at Tyninghame Walled Garden (TWG) concludes another year of massive learning….then a new exciting chapter is due to start. So grateful for it all 💚 🙏

Happy New Year / Depths Of Winter! We’ve made it past the shortest days and whatever this time of year means for you, I hope you are finding moments of cosy and rest xx
I’ve felt pretty disconnected from instagram in the last while, but I would like to share some of my 2025 flowery and garden best times now, that I never really posted about - to reflect, to remember, cos it’s better late than never?! Maybe to attempt to reconnect a bit too. Mostly because I’m so grateful for it all.

Garden botanicals seem to be ever more present in my winter wreaths this year and I love these details of seasons present and past intermingling, speaking of gardens and places, tended and loved. It also makes an ingredients list that reads so evocatively too - juicy rose hips, deep toned hawthorn, hypericum berries; spiky teasel, globe thistle and woody larch cones; starry ammi, feathery bracken, cat mint spires and sprigs of marjoram, all nestled into circles of sticky evergreen aromatic pine, cedar, conifer and eucalyptus. Loved creating these and definitely feeling festive now 💫
Grateful for everyone who came along to my wreath workshop - What A Joy! - and to all those who have requested a bespoke wreath from me for their homes. And of course to the growers, garden owners and friends who’ve let me rummage and forage for such wonderful ingredients.

Please share with anyone you think would love this - Instagram is very unpredictable these days!

Ps. I’ll also be offering bespoke wreaths made to order this year, but more details of that will follow….

Even though lately I’ve been finding as much joy in seeing flowers growing in gardens as those picked and arranged in a vessel, I just couldn’t leave my few precious remaining garden roses to storm Amy’s wild winds on Friday. The leaves from my favourite Viburnum - ablaze in its Autumnal red - may have been well and truly blown off, but I’m grateful today for cosiness and safety and this wee half hour of plonking and peering at these humble but beautiful garden flowers. Beauty brings hope and nature does it best - I’ve missed this💚

Roses are Koko Loco, Mocha Rosa and Desdemona with Abelia, Hydrangea, Chrysanthemum, Wild Marjoram, Cosmos and Dianthus from my garden arranged in a hairpin frog from in one of my saved workshop pottery bowls.

Much garden/s sorting ahead this week, post storm. Into the last quarter of my gardening apprenticeship now, it’s gone so fast! Wishing you a happy week xx

My current favourite spot in the garden, a soft textural, scrubby area of planting that’s always buzzing, a-flutter and gently swooshing. I find it a lovely place to sit awhile and take a wee peer into a micro universe.
The Erigeron daisies are gradually colonising the concrete slabs (thankfully!) and mingling and blending the edges of the beds which are largely Stipa Tenuissima grasses and lots of herbs and flowering perennials, such as my loved Gaura, nurtured from seed and overwintered (yay!). This whole area was formerly under slabs and is raised so the ‘soil’ is really just largely dusty compacted sand. Replacing the substrate or amending the soil in a big way wasn’t something I wanted to / could do, so after dawdling a while in indecision, I was inspired by some very clever gardeners and began planting it up with plants that I hoped would cope, perhaps even like it here. It’s filling out now and there’s some very welcome self seeding going on too. It’s an ongoing experiment! Not everyone’s idea of beauty, but to me it’s a total joy.
Swipe to the end for the before, a year and a half ago and just after we moved in…. Slab heaven 😂

In January I started to work in this incredible place, a walled garden full of stories. I’m so excited to see the garden start to emerge from its Winter slumber, to reveal itself bit by bit as the year goes on. I’m here for a year’s apprenticeship, working part-time under the guidance of the head gardener and I’m really grateful for this chance to learn hands on. Here’s a few pictures I snapped on a beautiful frosty morning recently, hope you enjoy ❄️ 🍂 🥀

A little shot of quiet, breathtaking beauty, the first bulb to emerge this year in my garden, just before The Big Storm. I love the painted look of these wee Iris reticulata, and how they look like butterflies in the breeze. A taste of the flowery garden abundance to come?…

It’s been a really busy start to 2025, with lots going on, so much so I’ve found it hard to post anything much on here, apologies! I’ve been intensively studying on my course, but also working in a new garden (exciting!) and also doing some flowery work. I made a couple of botanical pieces for a gorgeous project recently and it was lovely to be back hosting workshops again last week as part of their Creative Wellbeing day.

My final RHS exam is in just a few days time now so I’ll have my head down for a wee bit longer. However, there’s lots of ideas brewing for 2025, can’t wait to share more flowery news with you soon 💚

A very Merry Christmas to all who have been a part of Studio Seapink this last year! I’m so grateful to all our clients, customers, suppliers and supporters - you really make this flowery work/life all possible. And 2025 looks like a year for even more growth - quite literally! Feeling excited for the next chapter. But for now, wishing you a festive time that is positively the cat’s whiskers. 🙏💚🐈‍⬛ 💫🌲 ###

Wintertime muse, master, dear old friend, the wreath. A structure on which to hang our idea of beauty. A place to incorporate all the foraged and gently gathered ingredients that shine out to us like glossy jewels in the diminished landscape. An ancient ritual connecting us to nature and this moment in the seasonal year.

This wreath speaks to me of familiar gardens, favourite wild places and lovely people I’m so fortunate to encounter in my little flowery world. A wreath for a special couple and their new home. Creating this and then just a few minutes taking pictures was just so peaceful. So grateful for it all. Sending warmest festive wishes to you all, hoping you find a little bit of beauty and peace too 🧡 ✌️💫
