Are you a magazine looking for inspiration? I'd love Touchwood Aquilegias to be featured on your pages. I try and keep it to one main gardening magazine a year here in the UK, so each year just one magazine has an 'exclusive'. Looking for quality images to enhance the feature? Start your search at these sites where Raffaella Sirtoli has galleries depicting all you may require, and much more. Queen of Aquilegias and The Lady of Aquilegias
Touchwood Aquilegias also appeared TV June 2012. It was on the Welsh program, Byw yn yr Ardd follow the link to watch on Youtube, selecting English subtitles with the caption button, 2nd icon bottom right. Note blodau sipsi means gypsy flowers. In this part of Wales they seem often to be known as bonet sipsi and by the English version of that, gypsy bonnets.

April 2013: Magazine now available in your local shops. However, if you have missed buying Gardens Illustrated May 2013, you can buy it later as a back issue – there's a special page in the magazine telling you how to do that. Then of course there's always the digital editions, for those who have the technology.
