.....to our September issue. August was a busy time for us , chiefly due to moving our online What’s On guide to a new system, which, after the inevitable teething issues, we think is now easier to use and a clearer display. Please take a look and let us have any feedback! A couple of great competitions for you this month - we have tickets for the wonderful South of England Autumn Show and also for the Nutcracker performed by the Russian State Ballet. If you’ve indulged over the holidays, Heather shares some healthy tips about getting back on track on page 25. This fits nicely with the delicious Salad Nicoise which Alex presents as our recipe this month on page 24. Helping vulnerable children thrive through residential experiences on working farms is the brainchild of Jamie Fielden. Lynn Smith chats to him for our regular charity focus on page 26.

Easebourne PC Designs on Easebourne Parish The residents of Easebourne parish have the opportunity to help influence any future local building development by sharing their views on their likes and dislikes about the area. Their feedback will be used to help create a vision for the parish and the development of a parish design statement. The work is being done in response to The South Downs National Park Authority’s request for all communities within the Park to contribute to the area’s planning processes. Other Parishes to have previously published their Parish Design Statement include Fernhurst, Lodsworth and Liss. The sorts of questions people have been asked include: - What makes the parish special? - what are your favourite and least favourite buildings, landmarks and views? - what’s the best and worst building development that could happen? - what changes would you like to see over the next 25 years? The aim is to help influence any development in the
Midhurst Town Council
Edited extracts take from the minutes of the Community and Environment Committee meeting held on 24th June 2019. Speed Indicator Device (SID) The Councillor updated members on the current situation. Although he had found a suitable SID which would record data, he felt that he would like to do more research especially talking to the Speed Watch group to discuss using hand held devices as an alternative option. He will continue to speak to the Police and West Sussex County Council regarding the siting and approval of having a SID. He asked for reassurance from the Town Council that it was still keen to support a SID or alternative speed watch device in Midhurst, and he will be seeking this from local residents as well before any money is spent. Red Telephone Box This is to be refurbished as a tourist information centre. There was no update. The Clerk will have an update for the next meeting. Government Funding Chichester District Council have allocated £4,000 to Midhurst for ‘community led high street cleaning initiatives’. Ideas for how this money is to be spent was discussed. Benches, finger posts and bollards around town were immediate items that were highlighted as in need of maintenance. The Councillor is to undertake a survey of all the street furniture and report
parish so that it is in harmony with the surrounding area and reinforces local character. A small group of Easebourne Parish residents have taken on the challenge to pull the statement together, but need to get as many views as possible from people in Easebourne, Henley and the King Edward VII development to ensure it reflects what residents want to see. Homes and businesses in the Parish received questionnaires during July and had until the start of September to respond. The team will be analysing the results in September before starting the next stage of the project. If you would like to volunteer to support this project or have any questions please feel free to contact the team by email at: parishdesign@easebourne.org

A Purchase Order for the funds will be received from Chichester District Council and a report on how the money was spent will be required by CDC later on in the year. Pollinator Action Plan It was agreed that the Clerk should apply for seeds to encourage plant growth. The area around the edge of the Carron Lane recreation ground was deemed the most suitable area for these to be planted. It was acknowledged that the ground has to be made good for planting and that it has to be maintained properly for good growth and yields as these are not naturally growing wildflowers. Litter and Crime The Clerk was asked to arrange a meeting for the Crime Reduction Forum group. Ofsted Report The Councillor commented on the Ofsted report on childcare in the County and said that a letter was being sent to voice the Council’s dissatisfaction on the results of the report. www.midhurst-tc.gov.uk

Future Petworth Town Council Meetings
Edited extracts from the minutes of the Petworth Town Council extraordinary meeting on 8th July 2019. NatWest Building Councillors discussed the potential purchase of the former NatWest Bank premises to be used as Town Council offices. A written offer was made, subject to contract, subsequent to the Full Council meeting of 20 June 2019 and the estate agent had requested that all interested parties submit bids by email before midday on Tuesday 9 July 2019. Councillors reflected on their decision of 20 June and reported all the positive feedback that had been received from residents since the decision to offer to purchase the former bank premises had been publicised in the press and social media. Councillors were reminded to capture all that positive feedback as evidence to support an application for a loan from the Public Works Loans Board should the Council’s offer be successful. In accordance with the Public Bodies (Admission to Meetings) 1960, the Council resolved to exclude the public and press from the meeting at this point. Resolution Upon the proposal of the Councillor, the Council resolved to withdraw its initial offer for the purchase of the premises and replace it with another offer.

Easebourne Primary
Fighting back against plastic packaging This term, pupils from Years 5 and 6 went to West Wittering beach and took part in a litter-pick. We found out about nurdles, tiny pieces of plastic which are the initial stage of plastic production. Shipping containers with nurdles have been lost at sea and their cargo is constantly being washed up on the beach, alongside other plastic material. Humans have been mass-producing plastic since the 1950s and an estimated 8 billion tonnes of plastic has been produced worldwide, with only 9% of it being recycled. Plastic is killing more than a million seabirds and animals every year. Research, from Plymouth University, has found that close to 700 species of marine life are facing extinction. Recently, we went to Cowdray Farm Shop to find out what they are doing to help reduce use of plastic. They have introduced many different alternatives, using more glass, paper and tin and encouraging customers to bring in their own containers. Instead of selling orange juice in plastic bottles, an orange juicer has been installed in the shop and
Petworth C of E Primary Real life scenarios
Ever since I joined Petworth C of E Primary School our priority has been to develop our school curriculum, so it inspires, nurtures and challenges every child and this has been recognised as Ofsted rated our school as ‘Good’ when they visited in July 2019. One of the aspects of the curriculum we have focused on is enterprise and giving our children an opportunity to improve their skills as they learn in real life scenarios. Some of these opportunities have included our children in year one and two visiting numerous shops to get a glimpse of what Petworth offers. A group of year four children visited Rotherlea Care Home for several weeks to work with the residents in a variety of ways including art and cooking. Each year our year six children create and run stalls at our Christmas and Summer Fairs. We have children working with Petworth Gardeners to develop their gardening skills. One of our latest initiatives has been our year five children organising, promoting, creating and running a variety of stalls at their market. The children were given a budget of £5 and challenged to only use recycled materials, which they could sell. Once given this opportunity the enthusiasm, engagement and ingenu-
customers pay a deposit to fill a glass bottle with fresh juice. Elsewhere in the shop, there are gravity dispensers where customers can fill up paper bags or their own containers with nuts, couscous, lentils and seeds. Vegetables, where possible, were sold loose unless this reduced the quality of the produce, e.g. soft-berried fruit. Cheese is now sold in waxed paper and flowers are sold in paper and plants in recyclable pots. We met Esme Westcott-White, Shop Manager, and Rupert Titchmarsh, General Manager. They were very passionate about what they were doing. Rupert said, “We do this because we care about the environment that the next generation will inherit.” The Cowdray Farm Shop won Sussex Food Shop of the Year in 2019 in the Sussex Food and Drink Awards. This is the second time it has won the award in three years. Overall, we felt that Cowdray Farm Shop was a good place to go if you care about the environment. Isla, Kitty, Leah, Lucas and Ruby (Year 6 pupils at Easebourne CE Primary School). Johnny Culley, Headteacher. For more information please visit www.easebourne.w-sussex.sch.uk. ity the children showed was amazing. Many of the children took it upon themselves to see what they could use from home, so they would not go into their budget and therefore make more profit. Some of the items the children choose were unwanted wood, which they made into key rings; used wine bottles, which became ornaments; and used glass jars, which the children decorated. The market was a great success and the children used so many skills during this challenge, many of which are not in the National Curriculum. Another initiative has seen many of our children advocating the importance of recycling. A group of children asked the school to recycle used crisp packets as they felt many of these ended up in landfill. The children argued that many children eat crisps and it is important for us to recycle the packets. Therefore the children are encouraging every child to give their unwanted crisp packets to them and they will recycle them with Terracycle. The next step for the children will be to promote this initiative to the community to encourage everyone in Petworth and the local villages to send their crisp packets to our school where the children will recycle them. We are always looking for ways to engage our children with real life learning, so if you have an idea and would like to discuss it, please contact Petworth C of E Primary School.

Tennyson: Blackdown & Cromwell's Lost Feather Bed By local historian & artist David Johnston Perched on the sloping sides of Blackdown Hill, and almost hidden in a cluster of woods can be found Aldworth, the home for twenty-four years of Tennyson, and the scene of his death on October 6, 1892. Tennyson, never abandoned his earlier home at Farringford, but the growth of the neighbouring Freshwater, induced him to seek a second retreat more secure from intrusion during the months when the Isle of Wight was crowded with visitors. With this object he purchased in 1867 Blackhorse Copse under the eastern slope of Blackdown as a site for his new mansion of Aldworth. Lady Tennyson describes an early visit they made to the spot: “At last we reached the charming ledge on the heathery down. This looks over an immense view bounded by the South Downs on the south and by Leith Hill on the north. Copse-wood surrounds the ledge, and the hill protects it from the north-west. The foxglove was in full bloom!” On April 23, 1868 Shakespeare's birthday, the foundation stone was laid, bearing the inscription: “Prosper Thou the work of our hands; O prosper Thou our handy work.” In August the house was finished and the family took possession. The two poems in which the Laureate refers to his Sussex home are of deep interest. The dedication to his wife of the “Death of Oenone”, entitled “June bracken and heather”, clearly refers to Blackdown, “There on the top of the down, The wild heather round me, and over me June's high blue, When I looked at the bracken so bright, and the heather so brown, I thought to myself I would offer the book to you, this, and my love together. To you that are seventy-seven, with a faith as clear as the heights of the June-blue heaven, and a fancy as summernew, as the green of the bracken amid the gloom of the heather.” So we have the charm of Blackdown in the summer: while the other poem, quoted in Lord Tennyson's Life, is a late autumn picture, which describes the view eastwards over the Weald. “Our birches yellowing, and from each, the light leaf falling fast, while squirrels from our fiery beech, were bearing off the mast, you came, and looked, and loved the view Long known and loved by me, green Sussex fading into blue, with one gray glimpse of sea.” While Tennyson was busy working on these poems, his wife, it seems, would often slip away to the tiny Roundhurst School, in the parish of Lurgashall. Her visits are noted in the 1885 school log books. March 16th – School
visited by the Hon. Mrs. Tennyson, taking class 1 in Religious Instruction. April 22nd – the Hon. Mrs Tennyson visited the school and took the first class in Scripture. May 28th - The Right Hon. Mrs. Tennyson, visited the school taking Class 1 in Scripture from 11 am to 12 midday. A short walk from the old Roundhurst school, going in the direction of Lurgashall, will take the wanderer around the foot of the hill to Blackdown House, for many years the property of the Yaldwyn's, one the oldest families in Sussex, who possessed manors and lands long before the Norman invasion. Blackdown House, is dated 1640, and consists of two stories with attics; the walls are of sandstone and the tiled roofs, barge-boards and chimneys are modern. The original south frontage has changed little from a drawing made by grimm in 1790. The house is rich in panelling and contemporary fire-places. The staircase has turned newels and roll-moulded rail. A fire-back in the hall dated 1616 W.Y. suggests an earlier house. 'Burke's Landed Gentry' confirms this theory with the entry 'William Yaldwyn of Blackdown House: d.1590. = Joan, dau. of Rich. Cowper, of Ditcham. Cromwell resided here during the siege of Arundel Castle, the Yaldwyn who then had the estate being one of his intimate friends. Until 1844 the bedstead on which he slept was preserved in the house along with other relics of his time. The feather bed itself was recorded at the turn of last century, as being in the possession of a resident of Midhurst.--- But where is it now? David Johnston is an author, artist and photographer.

Sussex Snippets
A small group is trying to get a memorial sited to honour the aircraft and crew that crashed near Chatteris, Cambridgeshire. One of the aircrew they will be remembering is Sgt Ronald Williams who came from Northiam, Sussex and was on a training flight in a Miles Master which crashed on 2nd February 1943. The group would love to hear from relatives or anyone who knew this man so that they can get more information for a booklet that will be published in support of the Memorial. If you have any information, visit www.facebook.com and search for ‘RAF Memorial Chatteris Group.’ Dementia Support has launched ‘The Wayfinder Appeal’ to fund more personal advisors and lifechanging dementia support services, to enable the charity to reach more families in Sussex. To help raise the £1 million urgently needed for this unique, local and essential charity appeal, you can donate at www.dementia-support.org.uk Sussex Wildlife Trust’s annual photography competition is open for entries, including a £100 cash prize. Submit your local wildlife photography showing the beautifully vibrant and varied nature of Sussex to sussexwildlifetrust.org.uk/discover/photo-competition South Downs Writer in Residence Sara Clifford has spent the last few months chatting to over 500 peo-

Venue information and tour dates can be found on www.sussexlocal.net/cherry-soup Ash Dieback has already been discovered in some trees in West Sussex meaning almost 20 per cent of the entire woodland covering is at risk. The disease, which is spreading across Europe, is presently incurable meaning Ash–the most common tree in West Sussex, could disappear from the landscape forever. Adur and Worthing’s parks team is carrying out an urgent study of the extent of the problem in two areas, The Gallops in Worthing and Lancing Ring in Adur. If you are concerned about an ash tree, email : environmentalservices@adur-worthing.gov.uk West Sussex is missing out on a massive 22,000 tonnes a year of recycling. To highlight the issue WSCC have produced a video. To watch the video, find out more about the campaign and explore what can and can’t be recycled in West Sussex see: www.thinkbeforeyouthrow.co.uk Development work has started on the restoration of Stanmer Park’s historic Walled Garden as part of a major project to restore Brighton’s largest park and a gateway to the South Downs National Park. The £5.1 million project will see the area transformed into an attractive formal garden with a new café, shop and opportunities for horticultural teaching. The first Sussex Police Anti Social Behaviour (ASB) Public Awareness Campaign was recently launched. This recognises ASB as a societal problem which requires a robust partnership approach and positive policing. The local Crime Commissioner wants local residents to be reassured that Sussex Police is taking ASB seriously and acknowledging the negative and cumulative effect that it has on our communities. West Sussex Fire & Rescue Service is calling on those who drive for work, managers and business owners to help reduce risk on the road after 680 collisions occurred on local roads last year where 9 people sadly died, and 137 were seriously injured. More information on staying safe and other resources can be found by visiting www.drivingforbetterbusiness.com. More than 1,700 people came to the Wild Chalk event at East Brighton Park to learn more about the local chalk grasslands. Events staff handed out dozens of “Bee Bombs” – packs of wildflower seeds – to people to help support pollinators in their gardens as part of the National Park’s “Bee Lines” campaign. September will see a celebration of England’s wonderful history and culture for the annual Heritage Open Days. A number of events are taking place in the National Park, including a Heritage Weekend in Petworth. The project has received grant funding from the Authority’s Sustainable Communities Fund.

Wey & Arun Canal weevils The Wey & Arun Canal Trust is enlisting the help of 1,000 tiny bugs to help control an invasive water fern which can threaten other plants, fish and invertebrae. An army of weevils has been released into the canal at Dunsfold on the Surrey/Sussex border to eat its way through the fast-growing and non-native Azolla weed, which can form a dense cover on the water and deprive other species of light and oxygen. The weevils can feed and reproduce only on the Azolla, and usually die out naturally once they have eaten their way through the fern, helping to control the weed without the need for chemicals. The recent hot weather has provided ideal conditions for the Azolla to thrive, and it can rapidly double in size in warm weather, forming a thick blanket and posing a serious threat to water wildlife. Wey & Arun Canal Trust’s conservation and ecology director John Reynolds said the Trust was keen to use eco solutions to protect the waterway. He said: “We have invested in buying in the weevils as a safe and environmentally friendly way to control this problematic fern. Our aim in restoring the canal is to increase biodiversity, and keeping on top of the water fern will help to ensure the ecology of the waterway remains healthy.”

Local electric car charging points
Eighteen new electric vehicle charging points will soon be introduced in the Chichester District. Chichester District Council successfully bid for a £52,500 government grant from the Office for low emission vehicles, in order to encourage more people to use electric vehicles and to support existing electric vehicle drivers. This grant will be used towards the purchase and installation costs of the new charging points in eight of the council’s car parks across the district. The council has also started to purchase electric cars for its own services. Two electric vehicles are now being used by the council’s parking service to carry out daily enforcement patrols. Midhurst's local charging point will be based in North Street car park whilst Petworth’s will be based in Pound Street.

Sussex barn owls are ringed for National Monitoring Scheme Hundreds of people around the world have been following the daily trials and tribulations of three chicks, who hatched around nine weeks ago in a specially designed owl box at a site near Midhurst. The box is one of dozens provided by the South Downs National Park Authority and Sussex Ornithological Society to help support the birds of prey. Ornithologist Graham Roberts joined National Park ranger Angela Ward as the three owlets were ringed near their home at a barn near Midhurst. Graham, who has a special licence to carry out ringing and works for Sussex Ornithological Society, said: “Barn owls have been nesting at this particular barn for many years in the box provided by the South Downs National Park Authority. Explaining the importance of ringing, Graham added: “In Britain we’ve had a ringing scheme for over 100

Micro homes By Chris Ennis FRICS A micro home is a small, self-contained residential accommodation unit typically less than 37 square metres in size. Very often such residential units are arranged as studio apartments, and they offer very acceptable compact one person facilities. There are many such properties in the area, and following the relaxation of some planning regulations, there are likely to be many more. The average size of a UK home is 76 square metres, but in Europe the average size is almost double. The smallest UK unit that I have unearthed is 8 metres in size, and that is about the size of a standard UK parking space. A standard ‘Travel lodge’ room is approximately 28 square metres. A good example of compact attractive living can be seen at the Southampton IKEA store where they have constructed a ‘show flat’. There are many reasons why compact accommodation is so popular, including reduced cost of purchase, low upkeep costs, insurance and council tax. In addition, the demand for single person occupancy is rising with offspring eager to live independent lives, divorce etc. A micro home is a good way to get a foot on the property ladder and is likely to remain readily lettable as an investment.
Property 23 In 2013 the Government introduced ‘permitted development rights’ which allowed property developers to convert offices and some other commercial users into flats without submitting a formal planning application. Of course the properties still had to comply with building regulations. In Durrington there are at least two onetime large office buildings now in the course of conversion. Micro homes are mortgageable, subject to the particular requirements of the lending institution and the normal valuation process. In my opinion smaller homes are likely to become more popular as property prices rise, and the pattern of family living changes with modern technologies. Chris Ennis FRICS is a Chartered Surveyor.

Tips for getting back on track after holiday By Heather Smith For many, myself included, it is difficult to simply switch off the habits we create on holiday. But, needs must, and when we get home to hear what our impolite scales have to say about our holiday, we realise our focus needs to turn more towards health again. Here are my top tips for getting back on course when you return. When you’ve got the feeling that you’re ready to make a fresh start, its easy to think you’ll be able to get up half an hour earlier every day, or that you’ll feel inspired to cook a new recipe every night. But remember, consistency is key. Only commit to what you are certain you can do every single week without fail, regardless of what else is going on. Shift your focus, make things positive and they will be easier to keep in place for the long term. Focus on what delicious meals you can make, rather than the foods you’re avoiding. Focus on getting better at whatever
exercise you’ve chosen to do, rather than beating yourself through with the sole purpose of losing weight. People who get less good quality sleep start the day with higher blood sugar levels, crave more sugar, and overall eat more calories. Wind down for bed - turn screens off by 9pm, read a book or have a soak in the bath, then get into bed. This will help your body produce melatonin which will help you nod off more easily and stay asleep. Although you do need a calorie deficit if you're trying to lose weight, don't just play the numbers game. Particularly at the beginning of your journey, you'll often find that eating the same amount of calories across three meals rather than drip feeding them throughout the day has a big difference on the way your body responds.

Jamie’s Farm Helping Children Thrive through Farming, Family & Therapy By Lynn Smith Jamie Feilden Founder and CEO of Jamie’s Farm, believes that social and academic exclusion is one of the most pressing issues facing young people and society today. Jamie’s Farm provides a preventative solution to this problem, through a unique provision of ‘Farming, Family, Therapy, Legacy,’ provided by a residential and follow-up programme. Jamie’s Farm works with schools and other organisations to target some of the most vulnerable, and often by definition this means the most at-risk young people across England and Wales. Now the organisation has brought its unique provision to East Sussex, opening its fourth Jamie’s Farm in Plumpton, Lewes. When I speak to Jamie Feilden he tells me that he is, “Really excited to be in the area and looking for opportunities to be involved with local people.” Back in 2005, Jamie was teaching in a state school when the idea of enabling disadvantaged young people to thrive through residential experiences on working farms took hold. At the time Jamie was teaching at an inner city school in Croydon - an experience he describes as “profound and challenging” - and found
himself working with children who exhibited poor behaviours and a lack of engagement. Having grown up on a small farm near Bath, Jamie had brought some of his own lambs into the school for the children to look after, and realised that the children who benefited most from being given the responsibility and care of the animals were those children who had most difficulty focussing and engaging in school. Jamie felt that the sort of experiences he had gained growing up on a farm could benefit some of the children he was now teaching and so Jamie and his mother, a trained psychotherapist, came up with the idea of combining farming, family and therapy to be provided in week long visits to the family farm. Jamie says that growing up his experiences were physical – lifting hay bales, chopping logs - and he felt that showing the children what hard work felt like and the sense of achievement and satisfaction it could bring would have a positive impact. The first group to visit the farm were seven children from Jamie’s school in Croydon, they spent five days on the farm – as do all of the school groups – and Jamie’s beliefs were proven by what he describes as “amazing achievements.” From the outset he witnessed better relationships with teachers, “As they work alongside each other both teachers and pupils

are working outside of their comfort zones and see each other in a different light.” From that first visit it became clear that the combination of farming, a framework of family support and therapy worked and Jamie then piloted the scheme with, “… three to four groups a year to get going and prove that we had something.” By 2008 Jamie had left teaching to work on Jamie’s Farm full time, two more farms followed – in Hereford and Monmouth - before the Lewes farm was launched; thanks to an insistent supporter, who was keen to have Jamie’s Farm in East Sussex, where he believed there were great opportunities and an important catchment that could benefit from working with the organisation. Fortunately, Jamie was able to lease a farm in Plumpton and Jamie’s Farm Lewes welcomed its first group in March of this year. Jamie says that the charity’s model works because it takes the children “ ...out of the city so that they can reflect on their situations,” and shows them, “what hard work and achievement feels like and what being part of a supportive family for a week feels like … and gives them time to reflect.” When I ask about the possible perils of having a group of lively, potentially disruptive, children on a farm, with livestock and farm machinery, Jamie tells me that each farm has a core team of five to six “very skilled and well trained members of staff,” with a couple of part-time workers, and operates “strong risk assessments,” and that in addition each school group is accompanied by two or three members of staff. Each farm is, Jamie explains, “a proper working farm” that must, not only, be self-sufficient but is also expected to generate income for the charity. The Lewes farm has breeding ewes, cattle and pigs and so far thirteen different groups have visited, four of whom are from East Sussex, and the organisation is “excited about being part of the Sussex community”

A community that has, so far, been very receptive to the organisation and Jamie is hopeful that the community will offer plenty of fundraising opportunities. Essential as a group of 10-12 children visiting a farm for five days costs around £13,000.
The visiting school or organisation pays fifty percent of the cost of its groups’ stay with the remainder being met by the charity itself. Jamie tells me that funds come from trusts and foundations, and from fundraising efforts. The charity received a boost when it was named South of England Agricultural Society’s (SEAS) Charity of the Year 2019, which Jamie describes as, “A great way to increase our profile and meet our supporters.” Ever enterprising, Jamie’s Farms has found another way to generate income, letting the farmhouses at weekends through Air BnB. Offering individuals the opportunity to not only recharge their own batteries by spending time in beautiful places and staying on a working farm, but to contribute to a worthwhile enterprise – a weekend break with a real feel-good factor.

Like most charities, Jamie’s Farm works with volunteers, but as well as people to help with events and fundraising, the charity is also looking for volunteers who are willing to share specific skills with the children. Jamie tells me that in the past they have had people skilled in carpentry, gardening and cooking come to pass on their knowledge. Volunteering opportunities can be found on the website and via newsletters. Jamie says that the charity’s current focus is on making the Sussex farm a success, raising the farm’s profile further by meeting people and telling them the story. The charity has “been blessed with the number
Jamie explains how powerful it can be to see how receptive children are to the experience, how they can reframe themselves in a very positive way, thrive on their time at the farms and continue to do so once they leave. Statistics provided by the charity states that, “66 percent of children displayed improved engagement six months after visiting.” He also tells me of teachers who say that at the beginning of the week they wouldn’t have taken a particular child “as far as the bus stop,” but who are delighted and amazed at how that child responds to life on the farm.

In Your Garden Monthly gardening ideas and tasks by Andrew Staib, Principal Designer of Glorious Gardens Bulbs in your Garden Design One Plan for an amazing Spring now! Now is the time to plant Bulbs! Nothing heralds Spring with greater brass band fanfare than bulbs. Just when you thought the world would never again turn to the sunnier side of the universe, out come the bulbs. Most try to get up and out into the light before the trees have come into leaf so you can make maximum advantage of this by trying to plant bulbs in combination with other ones. This year why not be a bit bolder in your choice of bulbs and the amount you plant. Below are some tips on what and where to plant this month. Planting in Woodland Look around and see if you have any shady areas under trees. Bulbs love this space as it is free from footfall, the trees are not yet into leaf so there is plenty of light and there is reduced chance of being waterlogged. Choose natural colonisers like Daffodils, Crocus, English Bluebells, Snowdrops and Grape Miscari. They will multiply year upon year and make the shady area the great focal point of Spring’s arrival. Also think about large swathes of Anemone blanda as it will spread and be with you forever. Lawn It is not fashionable these days but why not plant up a large area of your lawn with Crocuses. They will delight you when they push up through the grass and in the 70’s colour scheme of purples, whites and yellows and they are easily mown over once they have wilted away. You could also collect saffron which are the red stamens inside the flower! Meadow If you have a meadow section of your garden Fritillaria meleagris is an endangered species in Europe so why not plant these chequerboard patterned beauties amongst your daffodils. Pots Now is the time to cram your pots with tulips. Tulips are a living meditation on impermanence as most don’t come back the following year- so a few weeks of display and that’s it. But what a way to awaken colour in your garden. If you have a very sheltered and hot spot try Freesia - their scent will intoxicate you. Plant in big groups Don’t be tempted to buy 5 of these and 6 of those. If you want maximum impact buy in bulk. It is cheaper
and the different between 20 daffodils and 200 creates a completely different effect. Even in big pots go for 12-15 tulips rather than a few. And if you are planting them in borders it is better to have three clumps of 15 than 45 bulbs dotted about the place looking lonely.
Gardening
through the door Go for the unusual Try Frittilaria Crown Imperials, the mad looked Allium ‘Hair’, Narcissi ‘Rip Van Winkle’ or Tulipa ‘Wow’ and again plant in a couple of nice big clumps, maybe on both sides of your doorway so you can enjoy them many times a day. You can also try the giant Snowdrop Leucojuim in a quiet corner of the garden.
31
coming up all the way through the year as if they are passing the baton to each other. For example you can buy Very Early, Early, Mid and Late flowering Tulips and Daffodils. Also you can factor in the corm families as well with Agapanths, Cannas and Irises as well as Dahlias. There are also Crinums for the end of summer, bright pink Nerines and Cyclamen hederifolium for Autumn as well as autumn flowering Colchicums with their ghostly translucent hue. Planting Advice
Bulb Combinations
The packet that the bulbs arrive in will normally tell you the depth and spacing for planting up. If you are planting in clumps, dig a whole section of the bed about 40cm in diameter rather than try to plant them individually. Bulbs as a rule need very well drained soil so if you are in a lot of clay, really prepare the soil well with grit and organic improver and even then you will have to experiment with what survives.
Try these; Agapanthas and Wild Garlic, large pale pink Hyacinths with the pale blue of Miscarri Baby’s Breath, Tete-a-Tete Narcissi with Fritillaria. Also look at the maximum and minimum heights of your borders and position accordingly, eg Allium altissima at 1.5m and Allium Christophii at 35cm Successional planting Make a column where you make sure you have bulbs
Taking Care If you have planted in pots make sure they don’t dry out which is possible if we have a dry Autumn or Winter. Bulbs like a mulch feed whether in pots or in the open ground so this can be done now after you have
Plant in amongst other plants You can plant your bulbs in amongst evergreen ground cover which doubles the use of the space and also hides the foliage once the bulbs have finished. Try planting in amongst an area of Periwinkle, Ajuga, Violets or even Ivy.
32 Gardening planted them. If you deadhead the old flowers once they have finished then you will stop the plant having to produce seeds which can weaken it. Most people though like to leave the old seed heads of Alliums to dry out as they look very sculptural over the Summer and Autumn. Lastly if you leave the foliage to die back naturally then more of the energy of the plant can return to the bulb increasing its health. Where to go in September This is your very last chance to see Chiltern Lodge this year. An exquisite garden developed by Lady Collum for over 40 years, it features a series of interlocking room, each one with a different purpose plus a "feel-a- herb" garden, pool room, water rill room and classical sandstone summer house. The garden is lovingly tended with an eye for detail and simple colour palettes. It is open to the public just a few days of the year so put a date in your diary now. Also put Sheffield Park in your diary for its dazzling autumnal displays of mature trees. Correction for August article In the History part of the St Mary's House article "The pilgrims were on their way to Canterbury Cathedral to worship the shrine of Thomas Becket" This should have been "to worship at the shrine of Thomas Becket" Andrew apologies for the mistake and thank you to our reader from Findon Valley for pointing this out.
September tasks Pinch out your tomatoes and sow new rills of lettace, radishes and spinach Keep up the watering. For years now we have been having sunny and dry Septembers Top up the mulch to retain moisture and keep weeds down (don’t forget they kept on growing until Christmas last year!) Prune the bigger shrubs that have finished flowering like Wygelia, Philadelpus, and Sprireacut out the old flowering wood back to new growth that next year’s flowers will bloom from. A harder cut of the Wysteria can wait till January. Mow your lawn on a higher setting to keep moisture in the grass to help mitigate against summer browning in dry spells Plan where you want your bulbs to come out in Spring. You can order them now for planting in November.
