November is a wonderful month full of crisp days fit for long country walks and pottering in the garden as the mood takes you. Although the month can be full of gardening chores such as raking up final leaf fall and prepping soil for the spring, you can also enjoy some fun jobs such as planting bare root shrubs, trees and roses.

This month’s colours are inspired by my favourite rose grower David Austin and the Ferdinand Pichard, Barbara Austin and Rambling Rector that bring me much pleasure in the garden with their sweet smelling beauty.
