We recently visited Mottisfont (that'll be one of my favourite posts of the year I can already tell), and decided to carry on the theme with another spot for enthusiasts of flora.

I've never been to Petersham in June (aka prime rose-season) so thought this ought to be the year to amend that.

Petersham Nurseries is always gorgeous. I mean, I'm inspired by the place all year round (the dahlias in October are quite something) but there's got to be a special something said for their charming array of roses in June.

As well as every corner of the grounds ;)

The greenhouse cafe basking in warm rays - we visited on a Monday when the restaurant is closed.

Stoic foxgloves replete with bees, industrious, diligently collecting nectar.

Throngs of climbing roses, of different shades and hues, delicately draped around their pergolas.

And one particular rose shrub, coerced into the most spectacular tree of pinkish blooms.

I think what's perfect about Petersham is the presentation. Of course it's become quite the 'Instagram-hotspot' but it's more than that! It's the perfect place to come down and glean some inspiration for your own garden, or indoor/outdoor space whatever that might constitute. Everything is beautifully presented, in a way that's aspirational and creativity-provoking. So if you've any sort of interest in plants, growing and gardening, botanically-inspired homeware (or just fancy a giant slab of homemade cake surrounded by blossom and bougainvillea) then it'll very much be up your street.
