December is so busy, and being honest: after the toddler, the dog, the presents, the house and everything else, this naturally comes last. Now, I'm not very green fingered at the best of times — the fact that my poinsettia currently has some leaves left on it and is still red, is actually a bit of a Christmas miracle in itself.

Who knew it was possible?
