Typical Cambodian landscape with pink lotus fields. Rainy season is lotus blossom season - millions of beautiful lotus flowers across the country in the flooded ponds and rice fields or around tradit ional Cambodian houses.
Lotus is harvested for a variety of uses in Cambodia, including food, ornamental and spiritual, as gift to Buddha in temples. Hence the need for lotus is large.

Large fields with thousands of beautiful lotus. During rain season the blossoms suffer in windy condition and bend all in the wind. Hence the flower blossom are all a little out of shape from the wind.

Today I went along to the back to back garden called The Lunch Hour Garden to catch up with Sue Beesley, one of our previous Gardener of the Year winners. Since winning the competition Sue has gone from being an IT consultant to nurserywoman and gardening guru. She gives talks, writes for two magazines and does radio and television for her local region; in fact she's so much in demand that she has had to employ a PR agency this year!
Sue tells me that her nursery (www.lodgelane.co.uk) is coming along well, it's hard work and not very lucrative as yet, but she loves it and is building a strong client base. Ideally she would like to concentrate on the nursery work in the spring and summer and write in the winter - sounds perfect.
The show garden she has created with her co-designer Isabelle Brooke is the sort of garden that we all wish offices would provide for their workers - a lovely, plant filled space for eating, meetings and getting away from your desk when you're having a bad day! It's quite a big garden, double the size of the other back to backs and I wondered if Sue and Isabelle would be having a go at a big show garden, at Chelsea perhaps? Given their progress so far, I wouldn't be surprised.
If you fancy following in Sue's footsteps and taking part in BBC Gardener of the Year download an application form today and send it in before next Wednesday.
