Here’s my first batch of photos from yesterday’s outing to the RHS Chelsea Flower Show and they’re all of the beautiful garden created by the one-of-a-kind @kazuyuki.ishihara I could have stood gazing at his creation all day long there was so much detail to take in. Those gorgeous little hummocks of moss made me want to stroke them! And of course the garden was awarded a gold medal. The final photo shows me with fellow @hqstories author @liz_fenwick whose latest book The Distant Shore is now out. #rhschelsea #chelseaflowershow #kazuyukiishihara #japanesegarden #goldmedal
Thank you to the amazingly talented @stewartlees a Thank you to the amazingly talented @stewartlees and Emily and Sophia at @gladwellsart for the chance to attend @rhschelsea today, I had such a great time. More photos of the show gardens and plants to come! #rhschelsea #rhschelseaflowershow #gladwellandpatterson #stewartlee #london
I’m glad I went a bit crazy with planting Purple I’m glad I went a bit crazy with planting Purple Sensation alliums last autumn as they look amazing right now, only trouble is it means I can’t add anything else to the two large troughs my builder made for me until they die back and make room. Meanwhile some of the Bearded Irises are flowering after I split them last year, but not with any great gusto it has to be said. Any advice? But the Astrantia and hostas are going pretty well, seems like a good year for hostas. #mygarden #ericasgarden #cottagegarden #alliums #purplesensation #hostas #astrantia #gardensofinstagram

The weekend was about the garden and I loved every The weekend was about the garden and I loved every bit of time I spent in it. All my auriculas died in the winter so I’ve replaced them with pretty little violas. A dead plant is always an opportunity to try something different! #mygarden #ericasgarden #cottagegarden #gardensofinstagram
My last day of my holiday on the Norfolk Broads an My last day of my holiday on the Norfolk Broads and I’m going to miss these views of the river when I leave. The weather has been mixed but so much better than I feared it would be. It was sunny enough to enjoy an enormous fish and chip lunch yesterday in the garden of the Staithe n Willow overlooking the river in Horning. Under new management since I last ate there, it was top-notch! #norfolkbroads #norfolk #horning #staithenwillow #riverlife #ontheriver
Yesterday I took a break from the river and visite Yesterday I took a break from the river and visited Hoveton Hall Gardens. I’d been before but had forgotten just how beautiful it is there, the azaleas and rhododendrons are spectacular at the moment, the colours wonderfully uplifting. If you’re ever in the area, you should definitely go. #hovetonhallgardens #hoveton #norfolkbroads #azalea #rhododendron #gardeninspiration #gardenstovisit
Early morning on the river, just me and a couple o Early morning on the river, just me and a couple of ducks and some songbirds. It doesn’t get much much than this for a Monday morning! #norfolkbroads #riverbure #horning #riverlife
Well, that was quite the day, watching King Charle Well, that was quite the day, watching King Charles III being crowned alongside Camilla, the Queen Consort. Not that I was there at the abbey, but I enjoyed all the pageantry and sense of history and tradition from the comfort of the sofa where I’m staying on the Norfolk Broads. Obviously these are just tv photos but they capture the moment pretty well. #coronation #coronationday #kingcharles ##westminsterabbey #themall #redarrows
Hurrah, I’m on holiday on the beautiful Norfolk Hurrah, I’m on holiday on the beautiful Norfolk Broads! Yes, the weather is not going to be great for the days ahead, but that just means every ray of sunshine there is will be enjoyed all the more. It’s great to be back and staying in a fab house c/o @riversiderentals as always everything is perfect. #norfolkbroads #norfolk #horning #riversiderentals #happyplace #riverlife
The garden is really coming to life now with acers The garden is really coming to life now with acers, hostas, euphorbias, Brunnera (Jack Frost) and even a troillius and a delphinium coming into flower, or being tantalisingly close to doing so. #mygarden #ericasgarden #cottagegarden #spring #may #gardensofinstagram
I was given a very special present at one of my ta I was given a very special present at one of my talks last Friday, it’s this teeny-tiny mug of teeny-tiny flowers and it looks absolutely perfect in my doll’s house. Thank you so much @susan_carson_1st for your wonderfully kind and thoughtful gift, I hope you’re enjoying your Bank Holiday weekend and maybe enjoying A Secret Garden Affair. #12thscale #miniatures #dollshouse #dollhouse #minis #ericajames #ericajamesauthor #asecretgardenaffair
