Spring 2025

Spring sunshine continues!
The sun continues to shine, and we have had a wonderfully warm start to Spring.
I have been visiting Wildegoose during the Winter, in preparation for the exhibition in September, and I have been watching the gardeners working hard to get the garden ready for visitors. The nursery is now open Thursday to Saturday.
There are a couple of spaces left on the last Spring, Sketch with Mary Days on Wednesday 9th April, if you would like to join us, book here on the Workshop page.
I have also been sketching, drawing and painting in and around Cantlop for my online shop, launching on Monday 8th April.
As always, a big thank you to all of you wonderful customers, I hope you will enjoy following my progress and hopefully come to the exhibitions at Wildegoose Nursery in early September.
Thank you, with love, Mary x

The Garden
When we moved into the Shippen, the garden was a grassed area bordered by a traditional mixed hedge. It was a blank canvas. Wildegoose Nursery planned and planted a wonderful mix of perennials that have matured into a haven for birds and insects.
Seasonal sketches of the garden will be for sale in the Garden Collection and Available Work.

Cantlop
Cantlop is the geographic centre of Shropshire. The name was first recorded in the Domesday Book as Cantelop and could have been named by Norman knights, from chante lou (sing wolf). These days it is a slightly untidy group of houses, converted barns and farms, and is pleasantly unremarkable. Ancient field names indicate the character of the site or the owners registration.
