GARDEN WITH ISH 🌸
January might feel quiet in the garden, but it’s the perfect moment to plan for spring. This week, Ish is talking cherry blossom - specifically a brilliant dwarf variety called Prunus ‘Kojo-no-mai’, which is ideal for smaller gardens or pots and delivers the most beautiful spring display. Ish explains what to look for when buying a dormant tree, how to check it’s healthy, and why cherry blossom is far easier to grow than you might think.
