I would describe this as a homage to Jane Austen with a modern twist. Philly, a plant grower and gardener, escaped from her family in Ireland to live in England with her beloved grandfather, a baker. Together they look out for each other, run a stall at the market every Sunday, and generally try to make ends meet. Lorna, a former art student and single mother, is a landscape gardener for a Cotswold estate and secretly in love with her employer, so she is sad when he meets a younger woman who quickly established herself as a permanent fixture in his life.
Lorna enlists Philly's help with the estate landscaping when an outdoor sculpture exhibit is planned for the estate grounds. The result is much like the plot of your favorite Jane Austen novel, with unexpected romance blooming in every corner and everyone living happily ever after. This is a great, relaxing way to spend a weekend.
