Featured Flowers

This popular 'Victoria' plum variety is grown all across the UK and is great for eating, cooking and makes wonderful jam.

The blossom this year has been spectacular and the plum tree was no exception. Close up, the flowers are so intricate and there are so many packed into a small space. And, the pollen polka dots are delightful.

Studio Stems

Cut flower stems photographed under the control of the studio environment will feature in our collection on an ongoing basis. This series of cultivars was originally created to be displayed as a set, but they work well as individual heros. Duncan was attracted by their strong structural forms and so chose rich tones for the backgrounds to bring out the colours of the stems.

Seasonal Highlights

Blackthorn is more commonly known as the sloe bush. The fruit, or sloes, is gathered in Autumn for their intensely sour berries that can be transformed into seasonal sloe gin.

It's a favourite hedgerow plant here at Botanographia and Duncan's always looking out for good places to pick sloes.

The delicate flowers, however, appear in early Spring, without foliage and well before the Hawthorn, which only blooms once it's leaves emerge.

Photographer's Choice

The noble conker tree is so familiar to us and yet this set of three Horse Chestnut twigs uncovers some unusual and intricate characteristics. The sticky buds have just opened to reveal the newly emerging and expressive leaves, all covered in fine, velvety hairs. Our super matt paper really shows off the soft textural detail and rich tones. All three prints hang together beautifully.

'Candle'

Most are familiar with conkers and the big hand-shaped leaves of the tree, but do we stop to take a closer look? To notice the seasonal changes? When the Horse Chestnut tree blossoms, the delicate flowers en masse form 'candles', because when the tree is in full bloom they look like candles on a oldy-worldly Christmas tree.
