Lemon Garden

Today's forecast: love & miracles.

A citrus grove built on the lawn. Pergolas hung with lemons and warm bulbs, cane lounges in sage and stripes, and fruit-filled glass on every table. It's made for mornings — the haldi that spills into lunch, the mehendi where nobody wants to leave the shade.

The palette

Sun, leaf and cane.

Bright, but never neon. Every yellow is paired with a green to keep it fresh in photos.

What goes into it

Six elements that make the grove.

01 The forecast window

A shuttered mustard window, hand-lettered with the day's forecast — the photo spot everyone queues for.

02 Cane & stripe lounges

Sage cushions, citrus prints and cane backs — low seating that keeps the family close.

03 Fruit-jar centrepieces

Tall glass stacked with whole lemons, topped with fennel and amaranth.

04 Sage tablescapes

Mint runners, sliced citrus, green glass and tall brass candlesticks.

05 Crystal in the trees

Chandeliers hung from bamboo over a sage bar — a little glamour in the garden.

06 The hydrangea stage

Two chairs for the couple, ringed with white hydrangea and fern.
