Spring Gardening Tips

So this month, I thought we’d feature some “gardening tips” because Taurus says, “I have, I have the fruits of the earth in my hands.” Not only is Taurus an Earth sign, they love to grow things and make marvelous gardeners. Growing up in England, I come from a family with a long line of gardening enthusiasts, especially on my mother’s side. And so, I invited my sister, who has certainly inherited this gardening ability, to write the tips for us! So hot off the presses here we have some gardening tips all the way from the UK for you, and the photo is one that I took of her garden a couple of summers ago.

With this month’s theme being “Gardens” and connected with the Earth and all things that grow in it, I thought it would be pertinent to show you photographers who specialize in garden photography. It is a small niche of specialists, but a very pleasing one to explore. And because I only know a handful of them, I did a little searching online and found a lot more of them, especially in the U.K. – surprise, surprise – so we also have a couple of photographers from over there as well, representing the ultimate gardening nation! And be sure to check out each of their websites, so you can enjoy and soak in the rich beauty of all the work.

Eric Roth
Based in Massachusetts, photographer Eric Roth has 30 years of experience under his belt and photographs everything to do with homes, gardens, and in particular high-end interiors. His work is bold and beautiful and I loved his portfolio of garden images so much, I was thrilled to include him in this month’s line-up. Eric and his full-service digital studio also offer lifestyle, portrait and advertising photography, so be sure to check out all of his work. We chose this particular image to lead us “up the garden path” (so to speak) and into our world of garden photography this month!
