So, if you’re heading to Dobbies Stratford Upon Avon, bring a fully charged phone—or, like me, a generous friend. The photos you’ll take are less about plants and more about capturing a very specific, slightly chaotic British joy. It’s the place where garden enthusiasts, bored spouses, and thirsty influencers collide in a haze of coffee and compost.
Just remember: don’t photograph the prices. And if you see someone lying on the floor for a petunia shot? Give them a nod. We’re all in this beautifully ridiculous garden centre together. Now go take some photos—and maybe buy a cactus while you’re at it. Your houseplant collection deserves the drama.
