I sometimes (especially in January) think I could live on green and white alone…how divine is this love letter debossed years ago into mossy bark. I would like one for valentines day-fast approaching by the way!
And we will wear these to our ‘love’ fete…are you in?
Seriously though, one can get unbelievably green these days judging by whats on the web…German company Indoor Landscaping has invented this greenwall product.
And Brooks Avenue House by Canadian architects Bricault Design sports a truly green exterior.
There’s green and then there’s ‘green’ and this ticks all the boxes.
I would want steps to the garden blanketed in velvet green, preferably sun dappled like this, but that is a few months away.
And at the bottom of the garden naturally a Greek temple completely obscured in ivy where we will dine by candlelight, a simple picnic naturally, nothing too grand…
Or if you prefer, a walk on the beach where our little ruin of a pavilion awaits us, lovely and green.
What to say??? Is it me or does green also lend itself terribly well to surrealist imaginings? Surely it had a special place in Edward James’s heart? Well it certainly has one in mine.

Adore this wonderfully verdant post!! From the fabulous fashion confections to the mystifying garden at Las Pozas - I love it all!! Especially since it is snowing here - yet again!!
Thanks for opening my eyes this morning to the glory of simply being.
How lovely Colette!
I wore an emerald green crepe dress last night to a poetry prize and felt very fresh and pastoral…
