Its been an odd summer here in Melbourne; La Nina has given us rain after 10 years of drought and the grass is extraordinarily green in the middle of summer when we would expect it to be a dead brown. Its always such a pleasure to visit Heronswood, home of Digger's club with its "gothic revival" house set amongst beautiful borders, with a casual symmetry and an emphasis on heirloom seeds and drought tolerant plants. This year was no exception..
