Welcome to Grow Cook Eat Arrange with me, Arthur Parkinson and my good friend Sarah Raven.

This week we're both feeling quite festive and what better place to look for inspiration for our homes and our gardens than our Christmas range.

And some of you may know, but some of you might might not know but the way me and Sarah work together

on a professional basis is by doing photo shoots with Jonathan Buckley where we arrange flowers

but we're also finding and then photographing things for Christmas and the home and so our

Christmas range celebrates not just plants in In fact, there's not that

many plants. It's more about making your home feel gorgeous, festive and sparkly. And I am quite

guilty sometimes of being a bit of a grinch. Sometimes I decide that I want to go away for Christmas

on a little island on my own. But actually, just looking at all these gorgeous sparkly lights, I'm actually quite

excited about Christmas. So even if I put my Christmas decorations up on Christmas Eve, I know

I'm going to have a wonderful couple of days of just being in a Christmas wonderland.

Let's kick off, I think, with lighting.

And I am really loving the fact that we've used alliums as actually our main inspiration for both indoor and outdoor lights.

So, Sarah, I'm really quite tempted to get these solar-powered allium lights.

And it's quite funny, whenever it's dark at Perchal and sometimes I'm down my own,

I'll see in the greenhouse this like ghost of an allium lit up from the Dutch yard.

And I know to just get towards it if I need to get to the school kitchen.

So I know these solar alliums are quite good, aren't they?

Yeah.

I mean, honestly, I forget it's there and I go to bed early, so I often miss it.

But I think it's been there a couple of years.
