Quirky Bird Gardener Blog

A blog about gardenng at 850 feet above sea level in the Scottish Borders. With 30 years’ experience working in Scottish horticulture my career has been varied. I have a long love of gardening and especially like plants that can be used for cooking and creating. I have somehow ended up owning my own nursery in the Scottish borders, creating a lovely place for people to visit and take away ideas, be inspire and buy plants that will be right for their garden or problem area.
