Lotus of Cambodia is used for many applications - as a temple flower, decoration and food. Buds are edible vegetable, seeds are delicious nuts. Later more about the use of Cambodian lotus flowers as agriculture product.

One of my highlights at this year's show has been the 'Art in the Garden'. As you wander around the showground you come across a variety of work from fibreglass cows to steel, pine and charcoal sculptures, as well as more traditional artwork, using willow and oak. moorcroft.jpgNot to be outdone however, many garden designers have used art in their show gardens. The Moorcroft Natural Woman Garden incorporates a handcrafted Moorcroft tile featuring the garden's plants, bees and butterflies. There's even more artwork from designers who are showcasing their work here. leaping_hare.jpgOne of my favourites is by an artist who has created leaping hares from twisted, plastic-coated wire - he's really mana ged to inject movement into his pieces. I'd love to take one home but I can't afford the price tag.
