Soft Landscape Portfolio & BusinessLink

Very busy times right now, as I am heading to the end of the PhD but first, need to finish the last assignment which is the Soft Landscape Portfolio. This is divided on two different parts, one Colour Combination Portfolio (ten combinations for both sunny and partially shaded spots, going from Yellow/Blue to Purple/Grey to name but a few) and two, Seasonal Plant Portfolio.

I can see it is very interesting and useful to start building up our knowledge of plants, but at the moment it is taking ages to find all the required information of every single plant, plus a nice picture from the internet (free of copyright of course) to add to it. This task is almost finished now and by next week I hope to be dealing with my own photographies, the ones I have taken during the year visiting gardens such Blenheim & Rousham, The RHS Garden Wisley or Waterperry which will be used to see the evolution of different borders during all 4 seasons of the year.

On the other side next week as well I will attend my second workshop with the people from BusinessLink. First one “Starting a business, is it for me?” was a bit of introduction to entrepreneurs to make you think if you really want to start your own business and what is involved with that decision. This one instead is more about “Getting the basics right” so I hope this will help me to know the basics of being self-employed, taxes, finances and best of all, a bit of marketing and how to develop my business plan, which I already have in mind.

A bit slowly but everything is taking shape. ;)
