£95.00
A boxed set of 12 notecards in collaboration with the incomparable Great Dixter House & Gardens, illustrated with wildflowers drawn from their meadows.
Each card is letterpress printed by hand on deckle-edged Italian watercolour paper, and individually hand-painted to order.
Presented in a tissue lined, grey archival box with brass wire-stitching, finished with an illustrated label. Includes one of each card from the collection with matching envelopes, it makes a perfect gift or stationery stash for your desk.
Each card measures 17 x 11.5 cm and is blank inside. The perfect size to share a little news.
Great Dixter House & Gardens is one of Britain's greatest horticultural treasures and a touchstone for gardeners, artists and designers alike. Scribble & Daub's founder Caroline Kent began her own wildflower meadow behind her Sussex cottage and studio using cuttings from Dixter's own historic meadows, generously gifted by Head Gardener, Fergus Garrett. From April to September it is now an ever-changing tapestry of native wildflower species, that buzzes with butterflies and insects and is home to all sorts of wildlife from slow worms to shrews. It is from drawings made in her own and Dixter's meadows, that this card collection has been created, a token of gratitude for a great gift.
For every set sold, a donation will be made to the Great Dixter Charitable Trust.
Great Dixter was home to illustrious gardener and celebrated writer Christopher Lloyd (1921-2006) for over 40 years, and is now under the stewardship of the Great Dixter Charitable Trust. Lloyd nurtured untamed expanses of grasses and wildflowers - including many rare species of orchid - punctuated with bulbs and his beloved topiary that were prized for their beauty, but as importantly, for their maintenance of plant and wildlife diversity.
Since the Second World War, 97% of Britain's species-rich ancient meadows has been lost. This collaboration aims to support Great Dixter's work to promote and encourage the restoration of these habitats.

Customer Testimonials
I absolutely love everything Scribble & Daub create, it has become one of my very favourite companies, the cards I have sent to friends and family have become enormously popular and become keepsakes.
The mimosa cards are truly such a beautiful gesture, and I adored the newsletter with all of the lovely images and tips that you shared, Caroline. I always come away inspired and uplifted. In fact, it might be the only email newsletter that I look forward to reading!
